Game of games 2010: hit games with friends |
Schlag den Raab is a board game by Max Kirps , which was published in 2009 by Ravensburger Verlag . It is based on the television show Schlag den Raab . The game won the 2010 Game of Games award in the Games Hit With Friends category .
Style of play
In the game, one player takes on the role of Stefan Raab , the other players together play the role of his opponent. Then up to 15 games are played against each other, with the first game giving one point, the second two points and so on. While Stefan Raab competes in every game, the rest of them play cooperatively. They can decide who plays which game, and everyone must have been there once before all players are available again. In addition, the Stefan player can select a certain player as an opponent from the opposing team three times during the game. The games are divided into three categories, which take turns. The game can be freely selected from 36 possibilities or it can be drawn with the help of a top. Whoever has an unrecoverable lead (at least 61 points) or is ahead after 15 games wins the game.
