Schmidt | Ligretto Blue | Card Game | Ages 8+ | 2 to 4 Players | 15 mins Minutes Playing Time

You can play in two players but it is better to play with at least 3 players.

It’s a fast game so not great for little ones (or older ones!), but it’s simple to learn, there’s no strategy and it’s highly addictive! Lots of fun and you can get an extension pack to play with an extra 4 players, which I expect would be carnage but in the best possible way!

Very good game easy to learn good fun

Easy to learn and great fun

Excellent game easy to learn

Absolutely brilliant game! (I have also reviewed the Blue edition - this is the second set i have bought as we now play with up to 8 players)It's all about getting rid of your cards in number order with a bit of a twist. It is scalable and can be played by 2 to 12 players, if you buy the other two colour coded decks (there are 4 sets of cards per box).It is easy to play and does not require brains or maths ability but there is still an element of skill but the luck factor equals it out for all ages. A game can take about 10 minutes but you will want to play more! It is as short or as long as you make it. Great family and friends game and somewhat addictive...It is easy to take with you when you travel as it is small and tidy but it does take a bit of room to play as you need to set a row of between 2 and 4 cards in front of you, a stack of 10 and then a place to deal 3 more cards at a time. On top of these you need a pooled space in the middle that is accessible to all players...not something you could play in the car or on a plane!! (I am taking it on holiday abroad though to play in the evenings).

But wish the cards were a bit more hardy because they can get bent easily during game play..

Learning and playing the game is not easy and practical. I still couldn't figure out how to play the game. Not funny
