Ciao, Ciao... (1997)

About this game

According to the rules, "the coolest player wins". This is a bluffing game in which players try to move their pawns safely across a bridge. The bridge spans a swamp full of hungry, carnivorous plants (the inside of the game box). This tiny boardgame is contained within the box — the box is entirely covered, inside and out, with the riotous, hungry swamp. A secret dice mechanism provides opportunity for skillful bluffing. A sharp little game. Ages 10 and up.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.1/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
