About the game

What you do in a play session

Ever had that moment where your brain just short-circuits? Well, Color Addict is the master of making exactly that happen to you! Get ready for colorful chaos where what you read isn't always what you see. This is a test of reflexes and visual perception that will make you question your own sanity (in a fun way, of course).

The mechanics are simple yet treacherous: the 110-card deck features color names that might be completely different from the actual background color of the card. Imagine seeing the word 'BLUE' written in a vibrant red ink. Your instinct will scream 'red', but the game demands you focus on the word or the background color to make your move! The goal is to be the fastest player to get rid of all your cards by matching them to the central pile based on the written word or the background color.

But don't think it's just about looking and playing. Since it's a real-time game, your friends won't sit around waiting for you to process information. They'll try to slam their cards down before you, changing the target and messing up your 'speed matching' strategy. There are even multicolored wildcards to make life even harder. It's the perfect game to take on trips, to parties, or even to a family gathering where everyone wants some high-energy action. It's fast, it's frantic, and if you don't pay attention, you'll end up stuck with a handful of cards while everyone else celebrates. If you love games that test your reflexes and make everyone laugh (or scream in frustration), Color Addict is your next obsession!
