ほしあわせ (Star Memory)

ほしあわせ (Star Memory) is a card game from Japan. The cards show highly detailed photographs of constellations. The constellations are from the 12 zodiac signs. The deck has 36 cards. 12 are reference cards, naming the constellation and giving a description (in Japanese). The remaining 24 cards are pairs of photographs, mostly being massed starfields with a few bright spots. The game can be played three ways: ほしあわせ (Hoshi awase) - a memo game, the 24 starfields are shuffled and dealt face-down. Players take turns turning cards up to make pairs. ほしかるた (Hoshi karuta) - the description cards are read out, and players try to pick the correct starfield card from 12 face-up. みつぼしあわせ (Mitsu bo shiawase) - a memo game using all three cards. 黄道十二星座の美しい写真で作られたカードで遊ぶ、星座カードゲーム。 全写真カードを裏向きにして神経衰弱として遊ぶ「ほしあわせ」、各星座の写真カード1枚ずつを表向きにして読み手が読み上げた星座を探す「ほしかるた」、説明カードも含めて各星座3枚ずつを使って神経衰弱として遊ぶ「みつぼしあわせ」の3種類の遊び方があります。 user summary
