Fiddlefoo

Background

This game is pretty directly inspired by Cabanga! After playing it, I immediately knew the core idea was solid and good. (“Play a card matching a card of the same color. This creates a range between those numbers; other players may throw away cards within that interval!”)

But I also thought it might be interesting to take the core idea in a slightly different direction. Add a bit more depth, reduce a bit of randomness, allow more player counts. After writing down my first idea and testing some paper prototypes, I found this new approach: play the cards to a shared map and provide a secondary way to gain/lose cards (reusing the music notes already on the cards).

All of that combined into the game Fiddlefoo! A simple and quick game that is surely distinct from its inspiration, in exactly the ways I was looking for.

Support

You can hire me! Maybe you need a special board game or video game for a birthday or educational purpose? I'm also open to inquiries about physically publishing my games. I am a registered freelance artist from the Netherlands and you can contact me professionally through my portfolio.

If unsure, visit my Online Store. It contains everything I ever made. Though it focuses on playful education and activities for children/family, first and foremost.

Another great way to support me is to simply let me know what you think! Mail me at harmonize@pandaqi.com with any feedback.

Alternatives would be to buy my paid work (a win-win situation!) or to donate through the most popular channels (see buttons below).
