About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for an extra dose of chaos and speed with Ghost Blitz 2.0! This souped-up version of the classic dexterity game brings five wooden objects – a white ghost, a green frog, a grey bathtub, a blue hairbrush, and a red bath towel – ready to be snatched from the table. The dynamic is simple: a card is flipped, and all players race to grab the right object. But which one is right? If an object on the card has the correct color (like, a green bathtub and a red ghost), grab that one! If both objects have incorrect colors (a green bathtub and a red ghost, for example), you need to grab the object whose shape and color are NOT represented on the card. In the example, with green, red, ghost, and bathtub on the card, the object to grab would be the blue brush. The game gets spicier with new rules: if the frog appears, you shout out the item's name. If the frog or another item is in its original color, shout the item in a foreign language. And if the towel appears, the item to grab is the one with the towel's color! Whoever grabs the correct object first gets the card. Grabbed the wrong one? Give back a card you've already collected. The game ends when the deck runs out, and the player with the most cards wins. It's pure adrenaline, guaranteed fun to liven up any party or family gathering, demanding quick reflexes and a sharp eye to avoid falling into the fastest ghost's trap!
