From the rules of play:

A simple, fast paced and fun card game

In an imaginary journey through the territories of our souls, deep into the heart of our innery selves we can picture a tree. The choice of the shape of the tree is not a casual one. Its web of branches, leaves, flowers and fruit is representive of the complexity of human feelings. Thanks to its symbolic representation of the tree and the display of the 16 feelings through as many works of art, the TA MATETE board game allows players to see their own image reflected in these "figures", thus authentically and deeply entering their own emotional dimension.

The object of the game is to collect the works or art portrayed on the cards of the different feelings. In order to acquire a feeling each player needs to collect three works of art of the same kind connected with that feeling.

CONTENTS:

  • A bag containing 48 coloured tiles, 12 for each colour (red, yellow, green, light blue)
  • A board portraying the tree of feelings
  • Living Gallery: board where to place discards
  • 148 cards representing the 16 works of art connected with the 16 feelings
  • A paper block to keep score

The TA MATETE board game is an EXCLUSIVE 1000-copy LIMITED EDITION
