Description Edit | History

Hilarious party game to be played in pairs.

Contents of the game:
Coloured various shaped blocks
Cards that depict blockbuildings
"translation" cards for the language used,
Inflatable bludgeons.

Theme is architecture in the stone age. One player of a pair acts as the architect who sees a card with the blocks in a certain order. The other acts as the builder who doesn't see the card. Trouble is language hasn't been invented yet.

So the architect has to communicate to the builder exclusively by means of 6 groanlike calls in combination with 6 possible moves (hands up, stamping feet etc.) to tell the builder which blocks to pick, wether to rotate or not, and where to put it. Both the architect and the builder have a card that depicts what the various moves mean, and what the "words" mean.

If the builder does an action right, the architect gives him a light tab with the bludgeon on the head. If he's wrong, he gets two tabs on the head.

Object of the game is to be the fastest architect/builder team to construct the pictured buildings.
