📖 About This Game

"Now goes me a light up" is a card game about common phrases. If you translate German idioms into the English language you don't get the correct English equivalent, but rather a funny English sentence. Then it's not English, it's Denglish ("D" for Deutsch = German). So one by one the players draw a card and have to translate the Denglish sentences into German and then also have to find the correct English forms. Only if a player can translate the Denglish phrase into German and then correctly into English they can keep the card. The more cards the players collect the more points they earn. Whoever earns most points wins.
