About LAMA
The name says it all, because every llama knows the most important rule of all: Discard all minus points! Get rid of your cards so as not to collect any chips. Do you fold, or do you hope to draw a suitable card? Decide! At the end, the winner is the one who could most casually avoid the minus points.
Reiner Knizia's multi-award-winning card game impresses with its simple rules and great fun:
-Each player receives six hand cards.
-Whoever's turn it is lays down a card. This card must be equal to or one higher than the top card of the discard pile.
-You can also draw a card or pass and thus fold.
-The round ends when one player discards all cards or all players have passed.
-For hand cards or cards that a player still has after passing, there are minus points in the form of chips.
-Whoever has got rid of all cards may hand in a 1 or 10 chip again.
-After several rounds, the player with the fewest minus points wins.
But the app contains even more: The two spin-offs "LAMA Party Edition" and "LAMA Dice" are also included.These follow the same simple basic principles as the basic game, but offer new game elements and thus even more variety. Play all 3 modes with up to 5 AI opponents or with friends and family via Pass & Play. Of course, you can also mix both in one game.
As a special bonus, the completely new solo mode for "LAMA Dice" is included as a world premiere. Set yourself the special challenge of achieving the best possible result. To achieve the highest possible scores, however, you must first unlock the 3rd level by achieving good results in the previous levels. If you succeed in this, the way to the top of the global high score list is open to you!
Highlights:
- 3 games in one app
- 4 game modes with separate scores
- Single-user challenges in 3 difficulty levels
- Compete with players from all over the world in weekly high score lists for all 4 game modes
- Collect Achievements
Awards:
2019 Game of the Year nominee
2020 GamesExpo Award in the "best children's game" category

Game is surprisingly addictive. It is simply fun. Not too much thinking, lots of luck. Quick to play. There is an error in scaling, the game plays full screen but does not remove the bottom bar on Android cutting off part of the screen (your own player) so that you cannot see you own score and part of your cards are hidden. I can't see the pass and play as functional. Would be good if this was multiplayer on network. But AI plays quick and fun I purchased this on sale and I am satisfied.

It is a fun game once you understand the rules. It has several modes, looks nice, and the challenge is to get the highest score on the leaderboards. This game has the same structure of other games from this developer, and has a familiar and easy to understand interface. 3 different games, 4 if you count the Solo version as a different one or you can call it 4 options, but in reality is 3 games, you can play all alone, AI or someone close to you (pass & play), but also AI and 2+ players 😁👍
