Similo: History - English Version
Similo: History - English Version
Similo is a cooperative deduction game, where all players work together to identify the Secret Character
using a series of Clues!
Each version of Similo comes with a deck of 30 big cards beautifully illustrated by Naïade, showing the portrait and the name of a series of characters with a common theme. In Similo: History you will play with real historical characters!
The Clue Giver must lead the Guessers to identify one Secret Card among the twelve displayed on the table, by playing other cards from their hand as Clues. There are two kinds of Clues: Remove Clues (cards played horizontally, which have something similar to one or more cards the the Guessers should remove ) or Keep Clues (cards played vertically, which have something similar to one or more cards the Guessers should keep ).
For example, Secret Card is Mary Shelley . You could play Virginia Woolf as a Keep Clue , to suggest to the Guessers that the characters to keep are English, writers, wear earrings, or have brown hair. Or, you might play Vincent Van Gogh as a Remove Clue , to point out that the characters to remove are male, artists, have a beard, or have light-colored eyes… it will be up to the Guessers to understand what the Clue Giver is trying to suggest!
There are different versions of Similo! If you have more than one, you can combine two different decks of cards to create new and interesting strategies! Just choose two versions of Similo and use one as the Guessing deck and the other as the Clue deck . Will you guess which fable character has something in common with Prince Charming , Peter Pan , and Tin Woodman from Similo: Fables ?
Add Bessie Coleman , the first African American woman to become a licensed airplane pilot, and Frederick Douglass , American orator, writer, statesman, and leader of the abolitionist movement, to all your Similo games!
Also Add Heo Nanseolheon , famous painter and poet of the mid-Joseon dynasty, and Yi Sun-Sin , renowned admiral and military general during the Joseon dynasty, to all your Similo games!
