About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for a quick and fun challenge with 5er Finden! In each game, you have just five rounds to find specific shapes on your own board and outline them. The catch? Each shape you find must contain all the symbols rolled on the dice that turn. Sounds easy? Think again! Space on your board is limited, and you need to be agile to avoid wasting precious time. And pay attention: time is a crucial factor! At any moment, someone can flip the timer, starting the countdown to the end of the round.

The game is simple: roll the dice, identify the shapes containing the rolled symbols, and mark them on your board. Each shape has a different point value, so choosing which ones to mark and where to mark them can be more strategic than it appears. With up to four players competing simultaneously on their own boards, the tension builds. Whoever achieves the highest score after five rounds will be the big winner.

5er Finden is a game that tests your visual perception and your ability to make quick decisions under pressure. It's perfect for those who enjoy fast-paced reasoning games with a touch of luck and lots of family fun. Each round presents a new puzzle, ensuring no two games are the same. If you like games that fit in your pocket and offer laughs and challenges in just a few minutes, this might be your new favorite!
