A casual game of set collection with rather elegant animals

Requirements

<30
2-5
12+

Description

Will you find three creatures wearing top hats and goggles or perhaps three animals with monocles and mustaches? Whatever the case, be ready to shout, "Dapper!" before your rivals to claim the tokens that will lead to your victory.

Goal:

Collect the most tokens by completing sets of 3 cards.

Game Play:

Dapper is a turn-based game in which players simply...

  1. Draw up to a hand of 4 cards.
  2. Then, discard 1 card.

Calling "Dapper!"

When a player notices they can claim a set of cards, they exclaim Dapper, lay down the set in front of themselves, and take 2 tokens with the matching variables (e.g. mustaches and goggles).

  • In order to lay down a set of 3 cards, players must make matches in 2 categories. For example, they may lay down a set of 3 cards that contain animals that each have both mustaches and goggles.
  • Sets may contain visible cards in the lounge (discard area) as well as cards in a player's hand.
  • After placing a set of 3 cards, play continues as normal.

Game End:

The game ends when either the token stack or the draw pile is depleted. The player with the most tokens wins!


There is also a Deluxe Edition which features jumbo-size cards and thick tiles (versus poker-size cards and card-thin tokens in this standard edition).
