Bouquet is a multiplayer hint match and memory game. Each card has a flower drawn on the front, and a bouquet drawn on the back. Each player draws 5 cards, and holds them in a position where they can only see the front, while all the other players can only see the back. Players then take turns giving clues to other players about what flower colours are in their hand, and then optionally attempting to make a bouquet.
When a player tries to make a bouquet, they must pick one of their cards as the bouquet, and 3 others as the flowers. Each bouquet on the back of the card is made out of three different flowers, and if they picked the correct three flowers to make the bouquet, they score it and add it to their bouquet pile.
Three bouquets and you win!
How to play
These are the current prototype rules and are subject to large and small changes as we test the game.
Each player draws 5 cards to their hand. They reveal the front to the other players, and only see themselves the single flowers on the back of the cards. Then each player also picks up a colour helper panel, which is a board with the 5 flowers written on it with a token that can be placed over them to indicate that clue has already been given.
Each turn you must:
Give a player a colour clue they haven’t already gotten since they drew a card.
When you give a hint, you pick a colour and must tell each player which of their cards has a bouquet of that colour. You cannot pick a colour already filled in with their colour helper however.
Then, you may do any of the following:
1. Pass.
2. Play a card.
3. Discard any of your cards and draw that many.
When you play a card, you pick a card from your hand as the bouquet and then three others as the flowers you will use to arrange it.
If you get all 3 right, that bouquet goes to your “points” pile. If wrong you lose points for each flower you had incorrect.
Then you may discard your last card and draw up to 5, Then remove all your colour clue tokens other than one of your choice after seeing your cards.
When you discard from your hand, pick cards to discard, discard them and then draw up to 5 and remove one of your colour clue tokens.
Note, any time you draw, the other players will see the flower on the back of the top most card you draw. The others should be drawn in a way so that the other flowers are hidden from view from the other players.
