Coloretto Card Games

I bought this game along with 2 other card-type games hoping that my 7 year old daughter could participate as well. We all really liked this game. My dad loves to play games but doesnt like games that require too much thinking or strategy. He also likes games that move quickly. This game is just that. There is some strategy involved because you may pair certain colors that others are collecting with colors that they arent so that they will receive minus points. Each game lasted 20-30 minutes and we played again and again. It is about the size of 2 decks of cards so it is definitely portable. We will not only be playing at home but traveling with this game as well.

Loads of fun.

This is a game all generations can enjoy together. We had 3 generations playing. May be a problem for those who are color blind.

Love this game! Played it with 3 players and it was a ton of fun, and easy for all 3 of us to learn (none of us had ever played it before). Also, tried it out with 2 players and it was just as much fun, but I think more than 2 players is better since it adds more dynamic to the game. I love the theme, as well. A good theme always goes a long way in my opinion, even if it isnt necessary for game play. Chameleons, how cute and fun! Id definitely recommend this one for any age group, and it would definitely be a fun family game including kiddos :)

I bought Coloretto for a friend but Im totally getting a copy for myself too! Its easy to learn and nice and fast-paced. A great game to play in between longer games like Risk or Settlers.

highly recommended

Coloretto is a very simple game to set up and learn. At its core its a trick taking game where you place colored cards in different piles and then push your luck by taking these piles at the right time to maximize the number of good cards you are collecting while trying to have your opponent take bad cards. These good and bad cards are determined by the the first three colors you collect (as colors beyond those three actually will count as negative points at the end of the game). What makes Coloretto so enjoyable is that its so easy to pick up and play. Theres enough strategy here for a light filler game to be engaging, but not too much that theres much analysis paralysis. so the game goes along fairly well. Coloretto is a really great intro to the whole concept of trick taking games which along with Cockroach Poker are perfect for younger players. More seasoned players may want to jump ahead to more advanced trick taking games like No Thanks!, Black Spy or Haggis, but Coloretto is a great place to start.

Amazingly simple game, but with great depth. One of my few go-to easy-to-bring-along games.

This is a fun game for everyone in your famliy. Even our youngest family memeber 8 years old can play this game and have great time.

Easy rules and the game plays pretty fast. Fun with either 3, 4, or 5 players. Its not mindless luck like UNO... Coloretto provides a nice balance of luck and skill (the best player wont ALWAYS win)... its more about playing the odds, stretching your luck, and screwing up your opponents.
