2021 · Children's Game

ROOM: Agus and Monsters

Players tidy up a messy bedroom by playing cards into a shared tableau and trying to win piles each round. Each round a different player names a scoring category (books, clothes, or food), then players in turn play 1–3 cards face up and resolve any character-card effects. After everyone has played, the player who contributed the most icons of the chosen category takes all cards on the table as their scored pile. Rounds continue with a new starting player until the deck is exhausted. At the end, players count the monsters on their scored cards; the player with the most monsters wins, with a special tie-breaking rule for one particular card.

    ROOM: Agus & Monsters showcases the characters from the beloved graphical novel series in an ideal card game for the youngest from home. Agus’ room is always messy, full of books, clothes and food. But among all these things out of their right place, we can also find some monsters! The goal of the game will be to gather more of these than the rest of players at the end of all rounds. The game shows two different types of cards, room cards and character cards. The first ones display a combination of three objects, either books, clothes or food, as well as monsters. The second ones, allow us to use special abilities that will turn the tides in our favor. On each round, the initial player will play one, two or three cards, stating one of the object categories, and the rest of players will play cards trying to score them all by playing more icons of the selected type. Whoever manages to gather more monsters from all the scored cards this way, will be the winner of the game! ROOM: Agus & Monsters is an ideal game to initiate the youngest into the world of tricks and buffling games, due to its easy rules, short duration and magic from its charming characters. A game they will surely enjoy! ROOM: Agus & Monsters is for you if: - You have kids at home and you enjoy playing card games together. - You are a fan of the Agus book series. ROOM: Agus & Monsters is NOT for you if: - You don’t have kids. The game is just too simple to keep adults engaged after the first game.
