Instead of a board, the game uses four piles of cards, each showing six different colors on the top card. Those colors act as the card’s “price”: paying with matching colored coins earns you points, which depend on how many coins you still hold in hand. The core action is rolling the colorful dice. Each die displays a hue and gives the player a coin of that color. But there’s more: exchange‑rate cards let you trade sets of coins – for instance, swapping a yellow and a green for three blues and a red. This creates a tiny internal market where hand management becomes key. The goal is straightforward: collect more points than your opponents by the time all cards are exhausted. As cards are revealed gradually, the game maintains a constant sense of discovery, and the choice of which trades to make can swing the score in an instant. Set collection shows up when players aim to assemble color combos that maximize point returns. With a playing time of roughly 105 minutes and support for 2‑6 players, Kombi‑Kolor offers a blend of luck (dice rolls) and strategy (coin exchanges). Its light weight (2/5) makes it approachable for newcomers to calculation games, yet deep enough for math‑game enthusiasts. If you enjoy counting challenges, clever trades, and a friendly competitive vibe, this title deserves a spot on your shelf. ## FAQ ### How many players can join?
