About the game
Imagine the chaos of trying to complete a puzzle while everyone is shouting and rushing around you. That's exactly the vibe of Tinco! This party game puts 3 to 6 players in a frantic race where the goal is simple, but the execution is pure mayhem: you need to collect five cards of the same animal to score. But that's not all! While you're frantically trading cards with others to complete your set, you also need to make sure you grab a piece of the medallion from the center of the table. The catch? There aren't enough medallion pieces for everyone. Whoever is the last one trying to grab one and fails, loses a point. To make matters worse, there's the infamous 'discord card' (the broken medallion). If you're the unlucky player holding it at the end of the round, you lose a point too. Victory goes to the fastest and most strategic player who reaches 5 points first. If the round is so chaotic that everyone starts scoring negatively, the player with the fewest losses wins. It's the perfect kind of game to break the ice, cause laughs, and test your friends' reflexes. No turns, no waiting, just the adrenaline of swapping cards and grabbing components from the center of the table while trying not to be the 'loser' of the round. If you enjoy real-time games where motor coordination and quick thinking are everything, Tinco is the right choice to spice up any party.
