NICE TRY: The Challenge Party Game

Game Description

NICE TRY is a competitive party game, in which 4 to 8 players face fast, crazy and hilarious challenges featuring mind, body and dexterity.

In over 50 challenges the players compete against each other in mini-games from different disciplines. With simple household items such as spoons or coins, everyone can playfully prove their skills.

The bidding phase before each challenge brings an exciting psychological component into the game, in which the players must estimate their own abilities and those of their fellow players in order to earn points.

The worst bid is kicked out. With the best bid you can earn the most points - but only if you succeed. If you overestimate yourself and fail, you collect minus points. The player with the most points after 8 rounds wins the game.

Do you earn the respect of your rivals, or do you just gain a gloating „NICE TRY!“?

—description from the designer

NICE TRY ist ein kompetitives Partyspiel, in dem sich 4 bis 8 Spieler (im Teammodus auch mehr) schnellen, verrückten und witzigen Challenges aus den Bereichen Cleverness, Geschick und Körpergefühl stellen.

In über 50 Herausforderungen treten die Spieler in Minispielen aus verschiedenen Disziplinen gegeneinander an. Mit einfachen Haushaltsgegenständen wie Löffeln oder Münzen kann jeder spielerisch zeigen, was er drauf hat.

Die Gebotsphase vor jeder Herausforderung bringt eine spannende psychologische Komponente ins Spiel, bei der die Spieler ihre eigenen Fähigkeiten und die ihrer Mitspieler gut einschätzen müssen,um sich Punkte zu erspielen.

Das schlechteste Gebot fliegt raus. Mit dem besten Gebot kannst du die meisten Punkte verdienen – aber nur, wenn du Erfolg hast. Wenn du dich überschätzt und versagst, sammelst du Minuspunkte. Wer nach 8 Runden die meisten Punkte gesamelt hat, gewinnt das Spiel.

Verdienst du dir den Respekt deiner Mitspieler, oder kassierst du nur ein schadenfrohes „NICE TRY!“?
