Similo is a cooperative deduction game, where all players work together to identify the Secret Character using a series of Clues!
Each version of Similo comes with a deck of 30 big cards beautifully illustrated by Naïade, showing the portrait and the name of a series of characters with a common theme. In Similo: History you will play with real historical characters!
The Clue Giver must lead the Guessers to identify one Secret Character by playing other character cards from their hand as clues, stating whether they are similar to or different from the Secret Character. For example, the Clue Giver must lead the Guessers to identify Princess Sissi. They could play Queen Elizabeth I vertically, to imply that the Secret Character is a woman, a country’s ruler, or European. Or, they might play Vincent van Gogh horizontally to point out that the Secret Character is not a male, not an artist, or does not have light-colored eyes… it will be up to the Guessers to understand what the Clue Giver is trying to suggest!
You can also mix and match different versions by using one deck for the characters and the other for the Clues… will you guess which fable character has something in common with Prince Charming, Peter Pan, and Tin Woodman from Similo: Fables?
