Loco! ***


A very simple game that got me started into collecting games. This game has simple rules you can't go wrong with the rules ever. It goes, Play A Card, Take A Chip. That's it, that's all to the rules. 5 colours, 6 cards per colour set, 5 chips per colour set. Cards range from 0-5. Game ends when any 1 set has all 6 cards down. Points are scored on the last played card per colour. The player with the highest total wins.

Anyway, in teaching new players, it has always been easy and straightforward. From what I observed, this is a game more suited to guys who have more interest in investment. Gameplay can be linked to valuing the stocks, rise and fall of share prices, diversification and hedging. It gets as interesting as your mind goes or as boring as you see it. Good for short introductory games. Selling at $12.15 or under US$5, it is definitely affordable for starters.
