The new family game from Stonemaier Games takes you to a stamp exchange. Beautifully designed, easy to play and with lots of tactical decisions.
Exchange frenzy runs over 3 rounds and ends with a final presentation. Each round consists of 3 phases:
During the collection phase, stamps and character cards are laid out - some face up, some face down. Everyone takes turns taking one of them until everyone has 6 objects each.
In the exchange phase you can first reserve an object. After that, you have to divide your remaining collected objects into 2 offers. One of the offers will then be taken by someone else, you keep the other.
In the presentation phase, you sort the objects from the two offers you received into your scrapbook.
Now the round ranking follows. There are 4 competition cards on display, from which you choose one. You have to weigh up which of the competitions you are already taking part in in this round and which will bring even more points in one of the next rounds.
After the third round there is the final presentation. Among other things, the values of the stamps and a special competition card count here.
