What Is Dobble?

Dobble is an award-winning card game of speedy observation! Each game entails 55 unique cards with eight different symbols on it. And between any two cards, there is always only one symbol in common… It’s up to the players to spot the match!

To test your reflexes, there are five different mini-games but all of them rely on one thing: be the first to find the matching symbols! These five include including The Well, The Towering Inferno, Hot Potato, Catch Them All and The Poisoned Gift.

Dobble is perfect for playing with friends and family. Anyone can learn and players of any age can win! What’s more, the deck comes in a handy tin which is protective and makes the game perfect for travel. 

Players must have a keen eye and lightning reactions in order to be the first to spot the matching symbol. The match can be difficult to spot as the size and positioning of the symbols will be different each time. Found a match? Shout it out before the other players and either take the card or place it somewhere else, depending on which of the five mini-games they are playing.

Players: 2-8 players.

Age: 6+
