Ubongo – Das Kartenspiel – Race to Match the Pieces 🧩⚡

The popular puzzle hit as a fast card game. Ubongo – Das Kartenspiel by Grzegorz Rejchtman is a puzzle card game from Kosmos for 2–4 players aged 8 and up, in about 20 minutes.

Each player is dealt 9 cards, and each card shows 6 Ubongo pieces. Then everyone plays at the same time, trying to lay 7 of their 9 cards next to each other as quickly as possible so that they fit together – similar to dominoes. Whoever manages it first shouts "Ubongo" and gets 10 points. But the other players don't go away empty-handed either: they also score for their round. The tension rises from round to round, and whoever has collected the most points at the end wins. Sounds simple? Just try it and race each other to solve the puzzle. In its small box, the card game is a handy puzzle challenge to take along, and it can be played with or without the free Kosmos helper app.
