Similo: The Lord of the Rings is a cooperative deduction game where all players work together to identify a secret card using a series of Clues!
This new The Lord of the Rings edition of the critically acclaimed deduction game comes with a deck of 39 big cards beautifully illustrated by Naïade, showing the portrait and the name of a series of characters from Middle-earth.
The Clue Giver must lead the Guessers to identify one Secret Card by playing other cards from their hand as Clues. There are two kind 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, the Secret Card is Arwen. You could play Galadriel as a Keep Clue, to suggest to the Guessers that the characters to keep are elves, female, or wear a tiara. Or, you might play Sarumanas a Remove Clue, to point out that the characters to remove are wizards, villainous characters, or have white hair… 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 character from The Lord of the Rings has something in common with Hermione Granger, Albus Dumbledore, and Ron Weasley from Similo: Harry Potter?
