惑星たちの帰り道 (Planet Go Round)

惑星たちの帰り道 (Wakusei Tachi no Kaeri Michi) (Planet Go Round) is a Japanese memory game. "God of our universe has drunken oveeeer!?" Each player is the god of other various universes. Let's hand the planets around between players and get them back to their own solar-system! An easy memory game, which children aged five can easily play. Designed for children, but adults can also play seriously. Planet Go Round is an open memory game. As cards are turned up from the deck, all the players get to see them. Then the card is given to a player's hand. There are four cards in each of seven suites. If a player receives a duplicate card into their hand, the paradox damages the Universe. They pay a penalty chip to the person who gave them the card. The player with the fewest chips at the end is the winner. So players are trying to distribute the cards to other players without drawing a penalty to themselves. This means they must remember what cards others are holding or have discarded. There is a Challenge mode too, if a player can get all seven suites into their discards. 「私たちの宇宙の神様が酔いつぶれちゃった〜！？」 各プレイヤーは様々な別の世界の神様です。 みんなで橋渡しをして、惑星たちを太陽系にもどそう！ 5歳からでも出来る、お手軽メモリーゲーム。 キッズ向け、でも大人も本気で遊べます！ メカニズムとしては各プレイヤーの手札と捨て札を暗記しながら、7種各4枚あるカードを重複しないように渡していく全公開の暗記ゲームです。 publisher's summary Easy instruction of the rules: Each player draw a card from deck in his turn. The player should reveal this newly drawn card to all other players. Then the player must give this card to any other player. If that player already has same card of given in his hand... ... a paradox happens and his universe explodes! Then the player who gave that card gains meteor token. When the meteor token in the token pool runs out, the game ends and the player who has the fewest tokens wins! However, what you can do when there is no one safe to give it to? Indeed! If you suspect every player already has same card which you have to give, you can discard it instead of giving. Additionally, a player can hold only two cards in his hand, therefore, when a player who already holds two cards is given a card, he must discard the oldest card. For this reason, surely you will be confused if the card you saw before has been discarded, or not...! Additionally, you can perform a 'challenge!' before draw a card. When you try a 'challenge', check a player's discard pile. If all 7 suits are included in the discard pile, you pass the test, and you can return a meteor token back to token pool. Do your best to memorize each players' hands and discarded cards! Background Story: This universe is in danger! Specifically, it explodes! One day, the Gods have come to hold a party. The guests of honor of this party are the planets that the gods brought up under their own care. So, the party became lively! It was good so far, but ... The god of solar-system, your universe, has drunk too much and fallen asleep. Oh my gosh, good heavens, the planets cannot get back to their proper places without their god. Under this situation... you are the gods of other universes. Please, players must co-operate, and let the planets go back to their solar-system by handing over the right planets among the players. But beware, if a god bears same two planets at a time, a paradox happens, and one of universes explodes, the planet becoming a meteor. So, which god performs best in this accident? user summary
