Lençóis (2020)

A chest was buried in one of the dunes of Lençóis, Brazil, and a key sank in one of its pools. Can you find them before the wind changes everything?

Inspired by the biomes of the Brazilian states of Maranhão and Piauí, Lençóis is a light and fast game, but with many layers of strategy. The game is for 2-6 players and has 18 cards: nine dune cards and nine lagoon cards, with different text on each of them. Among the dune cards is a chest and among the lagoon cards a key, and whoever has both cards simultaneously wins — but if you have the key and a thunderstorm in hand, you lose and leave the game.

To play, six cards are placed face down on the table, and each player starts with two cards in hand. On your turn, take two actions — draw a card and play a card — in the order you wish. When playing a card, carry out the effect printed on it. At the end of each turn, the wind blows and all the cards on the board revolve around the center.

Lençóis is a game of strategy and memory, but with a good dose of about faces and attacks!
