	Description Edit \| History

This game should not be confused with Coloretto, another game of the same name published in 1993.

Draw a card to play to a row, or take a row -- it's that easy! You score points for collecting cards of the same color.

Expanded by:

Coloretto - Die Extrakarten
Coloretto for two players (catalogue edition #5)
Coloretto - Zwei Neue Übersichtskarten (catalogue edition #6)
Coloretto - Die Limitkarten

Trivia

This game also contains a kind of "unofficial" Expansion Set for Knights (same publisher, same author). Depending on the edition you purchased, you received 1, 8, or as many as 23 "Creepy Castle" cards. The Abacus Spiele 2006 release includes the 2 player variant cards and doesn't include the Creepy Castle cards.

The name for the game was subject of a competition -- the winner was Sebastian Herzog, member of the "Spuiratzn" gaming group, Munich.

Contents:

Coloretto Card-Sized Rules Summary

A double-sided 2.25x3.44" (small coloretto card size) rules reference for a 3-5 player game. Simply print out the PDF (tell your printer not to scale the PDF for proper sizing), cut out the card and fold on the middle line.

Coloretto 2.5"x3.5" rules refresher "Cheat Sheet"

2.5"x3.5" rules refresher "Cheat Sheet" This is a card-sized (standard MtG CCG) "cheat sheet" with the key rules for the game. This card is meant for people familiar with the game but wants a quick refresher, especially about picky details that are easy to forget. Feel free to comment/critique for me to improve them.
