Bulls&Cows Light

Bulls & Cows Light is a linguistic tabletop game based on the classic Bulls and Cows game, which has been around for over 100 years! The game can be played by two players (the traditional way) or as a team game, either with a host leading the play or competing against two opposing teams. This version comes in a minimalistic Light edition: it weighs less than 1 ounce and is compact enough to fit into a standard envelope, making it part of our MAILGAMEs series. Designed for outdoor adventures and hikes, this waterproof game uses erasable markers, so it's reusable and perfect for multiple plays. Objective: Classic number or word-guessing challenge where you try to figure out what your opponent (or the host) has chosen. If matching digits/letters are in the right places, they're called "bulls," but if they're in the wrong spots, they're "cows." If the person (or team) who made the first move also cracks the secret number or word first, the other player gets an extra turn to try and even the score. In addition, the publisher has prepared a separate PDF version of the game for fans of independent Print & Play. —description from the designer
