Regular price £12.50 Save £-12.50Sleeping Queens is a card game in which the first player to wake up four of the 12 queens is the winner.ÃÂÃÂ So you lay out the 12 queens face down (sleeping) on the table and deal five cards to each player. The stack of remaining cards is placed (face down) in the centre of the table.ÃÂÃÂ When it's your turn, you must play one of your cards.ÃÂÃÂ ÃÂÃÂ
Playing a king means that you get to wake up a queen; a knight enables you to steal one of your opponents' queens unless they hold a dragon card which counteracts a knight;ÃÂÃÂ a sleeping potion card is used to send an opponent's queen back to sleep unless they can negate that with a magic wand card; jokers allow you to pick up another card from the pile number cards can be discarded singly or in multiples. At the end of your turn you pick up fresh cards so that you always have five cards in your card and of course you hope to pick the useful cards that will enable you to win more queens.ÃÂÃÂ Sounds complicated but it's not really.ÃÂÃÂ Each game takes about 20 minutes.
2 - 5 players
Age suitability: 8+ÃÂÃÂ (although the game was invented by a six year old and many children below 8 will be able to enjoy the game)
