About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to dive into the richness of Brazilian popular culture with Poranduba: Cartas de Cultura! This strategic card game invites you to use the cunning of sacis, the wisdom of folk healers, the strength of werewolves, or the cleverness of a broom behind the door to win three challenges before your opponent. But beware, one slip and your cards might end up with Beleléu! With an authentic touch, the game features incredible illustrations by André Vazzios, capturing the diversity and identity of the Brazilian people. Created by researcher Andriolli Costa, Poranduba was born from 15 years of folklore study and serves as an entry point for dialogues about oral culture. Each card has a QR Code that leads you to a website with detailed information about the cultural manifestation that inspired it, complete with references! It guarantees fun for those who just want to play, and a feast for those who wish to delve deeper or use the game in educational activities. The game is designed for 2 to 4 players, but also includes a challenging solo mode. It's recommended for ages 12 and up, with quick games lasting around 15 minutes. A unique experience that celebrates Brazil in every card!
