Description provided by HeidelBAER Games on YouTube:

In this trick-taking card game, you have to be smart about which tricks you are trying to get! ►► Follow HeidelBÄR Games on all your social media channels◄◄ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/heidelbaer.games Instagram: [@heidelbaergames] https://www.instagram.com/heidelbaergames/?hl=de Twitter: [@heidelbaergames] https://twitter.com/heidelbaergames/ Discord: https://discord.gg/Y48HXQ8 In this trick-taking card game by Cyril Blondel and Jim Dratwa, you have to be smart about which tricks you are trying to get! Each trick represents a story, but stories untold are worth only a little. If you can aquire followers as well – by playing a card not to the trick but for their indicated number of followers – you can match up your followers with stories to inspire them. It should always be your goal to inspire all your followers, because this grants you the tricksters favour and sweet bonus points. Note, the cards played to gain followers can affect the trump suit and therefore the trump can change several times in a game. It is up to you to adapt to the new situation! Anansi is in series with Spicy, our card game recommended by Game of the Year 2020. Game box and card backs are decorated with a special metallic print in purple. For such a rich and cultural theme, we were able to gather brilliant artists from the African continent, who were able to create a unique and colorful look for the story world of Anansi. Ages: 10+ | Number of players: 3-5 | Playtime: 30 Minuten Designer: Cyril Blondel, Jim Dratwa Illustrator: Emmanuel Mdlalose, Dayo Baiyegunhi Game Contents: 42 Story cards, 36 Follower cards, 3 Trump cards, 15 Trickster Bonus cards, 1 Rulebook Release date: Autumn 2020 More info here: ► Find out more about ANANSI ... ... on our homepage: https://heidelbaer.de/en/anansi-en/ ► Go shopping for HeidelBAER GAMES ... ...

About Anansi, from BoardGameGeek:

Some say Anansi is a trickster, but he is a spider for sure and sometimes even a man. Let me tell you why he is also known as the "Keeper of Stories": One day, Anansi decided to gather all stories and become the wisest of all. After many years, he finally had all the stories in the world, but poor Anansi did not feel any wiser. Eventually he realized that true wisdom is not achieved by keeping knowledge to yourself, so he decided to share his stories and inspire people with them - and believe it or not, that was how this game was made! In the trick-taking card game Anansi, you have to be smart about which tricks you are trying to get. Each trick represents a story, but stories untold are worth only a little. If you can acquire followers - by playing a card not to the trick, but for its indicated number of followers - you can match up your followers with stories to inspire them, and inspiring all your followers should always be your goal because this grants you the trickster's favor and sweet bonus points. Note that cards played to gain followers can affect the trump suit, which means that the trump can change several times in a game. It is up to you to adapt to the new situation! Anansi is in the same game line as Spicy, with the game box and card backs being decorated with a special metallic print in purple. For such a rich and cultural theme, publisher HeidelBÄR Games paired up with Nigerian artist Dayo Baiyegunhi and South African artist Emmanuel Mdlalose to create a unique and colorful look for the story world of Anansi.
