Board game - On a scale from one to T-Rex
How serious of a person are you? However, that’s not so important, because to win this game, you will need to unleash all your expression!
In the board game "On a scale from one to T-Rex", you and your friends will joyfully and loudly go crazy! Of course, in the best sense of the word. You will need to act out various actions. Which ones? It doesn't matter! The only thing that matters is how vividly and emotionally you will portray them. Reveal some action cards, get a power card, divide your level of "acting" into 10 steps, and start the game! Don’t forget to keep an eye on the other players: it doesn’t matter what they are doing, the main thing is their expression. Guess the player who is acting at the same level as you, and you will get closer to victory!
Yes, we have already told everything in the previous paragraph! Alright, let’s go over it once more but now with details. There are 3 decks of actions in three different colors. Shuffle them separately, place them on the table, and reveal the top card of each deck. These are 3 active actions to start the game. Now shuffle the power cards and deal one face down to each player. First of all, the power card has a color corresponding to one of the active actions. This will help you understand what you need to act out. Secondly, the power card shows a number from 1 to 10 - this is the level of expressiveness with which you should show the action. Oh, and don’t forget to place the eh-tokens and hurrah-tokens on the table. That’s it, now everyone starts acting at the same time!
Remember the most important rule: you DO NOT NEED to guess WHAT the other players are showing. You need to find among them the one who is acting out the action with the same level of expressiveness as you. Did you find such a player? Pass your power card to them without showing others. The player decides your powers might match? In response, they pass you their card. Did your powers match one to one? Get 2 hurrah-tokens! Is the power differing by one? Get one hurrah-token! Is the power difference 2 levels or more? Get one eh-token...
At any moment during the game, if you don’t want to show the given action, or you think that none of the players has a power card at your level, you can discard your card and take a new one. If the power deck runs out, pause the game, shuffle the discard pile, and continue your acting.
Almost forgot! In the power deck, there are "bye-bye!" cards, they also have one of the three colors. If you drew a "bye-bye!", discard the active action card of the same color, and reveal a new one in its place. Then discard the "bye-bye!" and take a new power card.
The game ends when either the eh-tokens or the hurrah-tokens set aside for the game run out. Yes, you won't always use them all. The number of each type of token depends on the number of players. So, when some tokens run out, the game ends with them. Now count the hurrah-tokens you earned and subtract your eh-tokens from them. The resulting score is your victory points. Whoever collected the most is the T-Rex!
