Verlag GmbH Geistesblitz 5 VOR 12 Board Game

We love the original ghost blitz, and this one is great, too. My 14 year old destroys me at this version, just like she does in version 1, but we both have fun as I go down to defeat.

My favorite dexterity game. Very clever in that the game is designed as a race but the higher level pattern recognition skills you need to win the race often get short circuited by the more visceral reactions and emotions. Game clearly requires skill and players can improve with incremental plays. Can be very fun, and also very intense, though best with players of similar skill levels.Other things I really enjoy about it:1. Very simple to teach (~1 min), difficult to master, especially in competitive settings2. Flexible in terms of required time for game play - can go anywhere from a few seconds for just a few cards to hours if people are really into it!3. Flexible in terms of number of people - you can play with 2 and likely beyond 8 if you can fit everyone in to grab. You can also play in teams or have a free for all.4. Flexible range of ages - I've played with kids as young as 4 and all the way up to senior citizens. The components are cute and the rules simple, allowing the game to masquerade as a children's game but the gameplay gives it much wider appeal. Great teaching tool for young kids - would also recommend it for educational purposes.5. Modular design allowing you to adjust difficulty level through introduce advanced rules and additional sets - I have played with all three sets together (Ghost Blitz, Ghost Blitz 2.0, and Ghost Blitz 5 to 12) and all the advanced rules, resulting in a game where you flip a card and stare at 19 objects to try to figure out what to grab or say before your opponent(s)!

So fun to play

I have played this game before and really liked it. It is hard to find in stores here so I ordered it.

Awesome fun game suitable for all age. It's actually not as complicated as you thought it'll be!

Excellent game! Take some time to get your brain adjusted! Would recommend to everyone to improve reasoning skills and logic!

Great smarter version of our beloved Ghost! Both my 7yo and 12yo play it with equal enthusiasm.

So much fun!
