Der Formen-Kobold

Simple educational game about shapes of items. The components are items created from two jigsaw puzzle pieces each, plus some tiles which show the entire shape of an item and a kobold figure. There are various game ideas included. The youngest children just assemble the items. The second stage of the game includes finding a shape that matches one of the items, then places the kobold on another shape which the next player has to identify. In the most advanced game, some items are laid out on the table and the tiles are placed into groups. Now a shape tile is flipped open and the players check whether it matches any of the items currently open. If yes, the item is placed on the tile and a new item is added. If not, the kobold moves on. If the players manage to put all the items on the tiles before the kobold is back in its original position, all players win.
