Challenge: Play “Go Invent”
Objective: Collect sets of four identical Inventor Cards by asking your fellow heroes and teaching the group about each inventor's achievements.
Cards: https://www.amazon.com/U-S-Games-Systems-Inventors/dp/1572814500
- or
- Inventor cards: Pre-1600 set
- Inventor cards: 1700-1800's
- Inventor cards: 1900's
- Inventor cards: Men of the 21st Century
- Inventor cards: Women of the 21st Century
Setup:
- Form a group of 2-4 heroes.
- Shuffle the Inventor Cards thoroughly.
- Deal 4 cards to each player.
- Place the remaining cards in a pile (the Inventor's Pile) within easy reach of all players.
How to Play:
- The player to the left of the dealer goes first. Turns proceed clockwise.
- On your turn, choose another player and ask: “Do you have any [Inventor’s Name] cards?”
- If the player has one or more cards of the named inventor, they must hand them all over to you.
- If the player does not have any, they reply, “GO INVENT.” You then draw one card from the Inventor’s Pile.
- If you collect a set of 4 matching Inventor Cards, lay the set on the table. As you do:
- Teach the group about the inventor: share their name, their invention, and 1-2 interesting facts (found on the bottom of the cards).
- Your turn ends after you either draw a card or receive cards from another player.
Winning the Game:
- The game ends when all cards have been organized into sets.
- The player with the most sets wins!
Pro Tip: Listen closely as other players share facts about their inventors—it might help you remember important details for future challenges!
