Pandasaurus Games Sea Salt and Paper Card Game - Ocean-Themed Strategy Game, Fast-Paced and Tactical, Fun Family Game for Kids and Adults, Ages 8+, 2-4 Players, 30-45 Minute Playtime

This game is so CUTE! And if you're a man, it's so FUN too. The art is so cool. Origami type art on each card. Scenes and quality is great. The actual game is fairly straightforward but I did have to read the instructions through twice to make sure I understood. My 8 year old can play it without a problem. Super nice box and small enough to stow in the car, purse, diaper bag, etc to take anywhere and play on the go! Keeps kids entertained at restaurants and outings - even my younger ones because they love looking at the cards

Easy to teach, easy to play, but with lots of good decisions. I took this to Christmas with my in-laws and it was a huge hit. They generally like card games, but the response on this one was very positive. My niece is 11 and she was not just able to learn it, but she smoked us all. This is such an easy recommendation for just about anyone, especially for the price. Read on if you'd like a description of the game: Sea Salt and Paper is a fairly easy game to teach. It's a draw and discard game (like Rummy) where you draw two cards and discard one, OR take one from one of the two discard piles. This gives the players a number of interesting decisions. Do you take a discard that you know you can use, or take a chance on the draw? Do you need to draw so that you can discard and cover up a card that the person to your left really wants (and the person to your right should never have discarded in the first place)? That cards come in two main types: The first type you can lay a pair of the same kind in front of you to score a single point and do a special power, which will always result in gaining another card. Where you get that card from is determined by the type of card laid down. The other type of card scores you points - lots of points - in a set collection way. So you're constantly balancing collecting cards that will get you more cards and cards that get you more points. It is a great design. Each hand is played until someone declares that they have 7 or more points by either saying "STOP" (everyone gets the points in hand and on table) or "LAST CHANCE". Last chance gives every other player one more turn to exceed the points of the calling player. If the calling player has the most points after the extra turn is taken, then they receive their points plus a (usually small) color bonus, while all other players just get their color bonus. Knowing when to call stop and when to call last chance is a critical part of the game, and adds a lot of excitement. Play hands until one player exceeds a point threshold that depends on number of players, and player with the most points wins.

Gameplay is great. Art is beautiful. Plays quickly. You might need a couple games to understand the rules, but it's a game easy to play. Pros: Travel size: You can take it anywhere, even with card sleeves. Fun: Any player can win at anytime, even a comeback win isn't rare. Art: Card images are origami pictures, just do yourself a favor and get it. Cons: Complexity: It's more difficult than Uno. If this is an issue, then you might need to reconsider. Also, it's just a filler game. It's not a con per se, but you might need other games for game night.

I like sea salt and paper. It is a simple game in a small box that can play several people. It has some interesting challenges with the mermaids. Plays quickly and I like the the art of the "pictures" or origami. The cards are high quality. The one downside is the game + expansion do not all fit in the original box- ugh. But great game, easy to teach. Some strategy with what to keep, what to play, and what to discard. I would recommend this game. It is not in my top 10, may not hit the table all the time, but I do recommend it.

Sea salt and paper is a favorite game for my husband and me. It is easy to take with you and so much fun is packed in a small package. We took it to Hawaii and camping and up to our wine and cheese on the hill watching the sunset nights. We also play it at home quite a bit. There is just enough strategy and just enough luck needed to make the game challenging yet fun. We love the card designs, as well. The ocean origami pictures are wonderful. We usually play board games, but this card game is a favorite. This game is very easy to teach, as well, so you can play it with family or friends. We have the Sea Salt and Paper: Extra Salt expansion and are looking forward to the Sea Salt and Paper: Extra Pepper expansion!

I've really enjoyed this deceptively simple strategy game with tonnes of replayability! Perhaps my only gripe is the design of the box - it's so small and compactly designed that the air is forced out when you close the lid, creating an almost vacuum-like suction which makes it hard to reopen. Be warned!

انصح فيها ومناسبه للعب بكل مكان وبكل وقت

Good quality

Es una de las cajas más pequeñas que tengo n mi librería de juegos, pero eso la hace perfecta para llevarla de viaje. El juego no tiene dependencia del idioma, pero el manual y las tarjetas de referencia vienen en inglés así que basta que una persona lo explique y se aprende rápidamente. La mecánica trata de hacer puntos juntando cartas del mismo tipo o algunas que multiplican el valor de las que ya tienes, alguien debe parar la ronda diciendo "Alto" o "Ultima oportunidad" y dependiendo de ello se hace una puntuación . Con "Alto" todos puntúan lo que tienen con "ultima oportunidad" el jugador que dijo esta frase enfrenta sus propias cartas con las de los demás, y si obtiene más puntos se los lleva, si no, solo puntúa unos pocos puntos y los demás se llevan su puntuación completa. El juego es para cuatro jugadores máximo y es muy disfrutable. Si te gusta enfundar cartas si puedes hacerlo con fundas 63.5x88 pero deben de ser PERFECT FIT , de ese manera caben bien en la cajita (otro tipo de fundas no caben), Es un gran juego

Uno de los mejores juegos que he jugado, simplemente maravilloso y sencillo de jugar.
