Description

In Kurz vor Knapp, you'll be on the edge of your seat as you assess, connect, and build higher, all while trying to outmaneuver your opponents. This action-packed game is designed for 2 to 4 players and can be learned in no time, thanks to its simple rules. A typical game lasts around 30 minutes, making it the perfect addition to any game night. The goal is to be the first player to place all of your cylinders, and to do that, you'll need to carefully consider the length of the wood beams and where you can place them. On each turn, you'll take a close look at the wood beam at the end of the spiral and try to figure out which two cylinders you can balance it on. But be careful, because other players can steal your turn if they think they can place the beam on higher-level cylinders. If you succeed in placing the beam, you'll get to add cylinders to the playing area, with the possibility of adding more cylinders the higher the beam is placed. With its unique blend of auction, bidding, stacking, and balancing mechanics, Kurz vor Knapp is a thrilling game that requires a combination of strategy and dexterity. Designed by Helmut Punke and Tobias Punke, and published in 2020, this base game is sure to provide hours of entertainment for you and your friends.
