No Shelf Control
2–5 players · 20 min · 8+
You love books, but your shelf is stuffed? With the card game No Shelf Control, you can tame the chaos in a playful way! Stack your bookshelf cards by matching colors and collect decorative items for bonus points. But be careful: you can’t place a book on top of a decoration item, and if you end up with an unread stack, you lose points. Each round, you draw a card — if you're lucky, it fits your stack, your shelf grows taller, and you earn more points. But if it doesn’t fit, your shelf collapses. Fortunately, you have a token that lets you repel a card or draw an extra one. Do you want to push your luck? With a clever mix of strategy and humor, this game brings together book lovers who know the eternal space problem all too well.
