About the game
Glitter or Litter is a semi‑cooperative strategy game that places you in the shoes of a cleanup crew in a bustling tourist town. Each player controls a recycling van, moving around the city in search of scattered trash. With just three action points per turn, you can walk, pick up visible litter, dig up buried waste, or use special vehicle abilities. After every turn, an event card brings more trash into town, raising the pressure on the group. If litter spreads too far, everyone loses—it's a real test of coordination and planning. The ultimate goal is to rack up the highest recycling points, but you can't just win individually: the whole town must stay clean. The game ends when the event deck runs out or the town is buried, whichever comes first. It’s an experience that blends logistics, resource strategy, and a dash of environmental urgency, with high‑quality components including sturdy plastic pieces, illustrated cards, and a colorful board that captures a beach‑town vibe.

With 2–4 players and 40–60 minutes of playtime, Glitter or Litter offers a moderate complexity level. The action‑point mechanic forces you to plan your moves efficiently, while unpredictable events keep the tension high. If you enjoy games that mix cooperation and competition, with eco‑friendly themes and logistical challenges, this title is for you. The mass production, attention to detail, and recycling theme make the game an invitation to reflect on the waste impact on the planet—all while having fun with friends.

In short, Glitter or Litter is an innovative proposal that brings recycling to the board in a strategic and fun way, with a mechanic that demands planning, coordination, and a pinch of luck to conquer the environmental challenge.
