About this deal
Whoever grabs the right object first takes the card and puts it into their scoring pile, then the next player flips a card to start the next turn.
If both objects are colored incorrectly – say, a green ghost and a red mouse – then you look for the object and color not represented among the four details shown. The idea of the game is to flip up one card and quickly as possible grab the correct item, which is determined by the image on the card. Ghost Blitz is a wonderful dexterity game for two to eight players that capitalises on pattern recognition and lightning-quick reflexes.If both objects are coloured incorrectly – say, a green ghost and a red mouse – then you look for the object and colour not represented among the four details shown. Be quick but don't go for the wrong figure – that's the advice that determines winners and losers in this new and crazy reaction game.
But if you hurriedly grab the wrong piece then you not only lose the card everyone was vying for but you must also sacrifice one card from your collection and give it to the player who grabbed the correct piece. If one object is coloured correctly - say, a green bottle and a red mouse - then players need to grab that correctly coloured object. In fact, there is a rule variant wherein you shout out the correct piece instead of grabbing it IF there is a book present on the card. Ghost blitz, in any of the three configurations, is probably among my favorite fillers and can sure bring quite a few laughs in a round. Shuffle the deck of cards and put it facedown in the middle of the table, next to the five wooden pieces (white ghost, blue book, green bottle, red chair and grey mouse).If the revealed card had a blue book and a red ghost, for example, then you would grab the blue book as it accurately depicts one of the five game pieces. All of this wacky color changing makes Balduin very confused and it is our job to help him sort things out. In fact, you may find it to be a nice equaliser for playing against those with quicker fingers but slower tongues.
