Welcome to Fun with Boxes, Episode 309: How to Play Fliptoons, a small deck building card game designed by Jordy Adan & Renato Simões, and published by Thunderworks Games
Join me as I guide you through the games components and then setup and show you how to play, FlipToons - can you flip your way to fame in this animated deck building card game?
FlipToons is a quick deck-building game. You start with a small deck of hopeful toon actors. Each round, flip a number of toons from your deck onto your screen grid to audition together.
Each toon card in your 3x2 grid has different talent effects. Some are resolved immediately, while others interact and earn Fame for your studio. However, not all toons will work well together.
After each Flip, tally up your toons’ Fame points and spend them to hire more stars or dismiss bad actors. If your Flip generates 30+ Fame, you win the Critic’s Choice award and the game ends following a Final Flip.
And of course, the player with the most Fame wins.
I hope you enjoy
Take care-

About FlipToons, from BoardGameGeek:
It's time to cast the next great animated show! A top talent agent like you knows a star when you see one, and the director needs you to fill six roles for the big production. Search Flip Valley for the perfect toon characters, and make sure they're ready to work together on the silver screen!
FlipToons is a quick deck-building game. You'll begin with a deck of hopeful toon actors. Each round, flip six of these toons out from your deck into your screen grid to audition together.
Each toon card in your 3-by-2 grid has different talent effects. Some are resolved as soon as they are flipped. Many will interact with one another and (hopefully) earn Fame for your studio. But they won't all have that special on-screen chemistry you're looking for. Some won't work well together at all!
After each Flip, tally up your current grid of toons' Fame points, then spend them to hire more stars for your cast. Purchase these new toon cards from the market and add them to your deck. Or, spend some of your Fame to dismiss a card, and get that bad actor off the stage. Sorry kid, you just don't have what it takes to be a star in this show.
If your Flip is the first to generate 30+ Fame, you'll earn the Critic's Choice award (worth extra Fame points) and trigger the end of the game. After that turn's market phase, it's time for one Final Flip. The player who earns the most Fame during the Final Flip is declared the winner. Applause!
