A cheerful trading card game about herding your fish to Buddha before anyone else.
Who it's for
Good for casual groups and younger players who enjoy simple trading and a bit of good-natured needling at the table.
Not for you if…
If you want deeper strategy or dislike games that lean heavily on negotiation with other players, this stays too light and social for you.
Vibe's take
Light and social — most of the fun comes from haggling over trades and watching a wandering Buddha throw everyone's plans into flux.
Buddha bei die Fische has you racing to gather your school of fish in front of a laughing Buddha statue before your rivals do — or before he wanders off to another shore. Success comes down to trading fish cleverly with other players and keeping a close eye on what everyone else is collecting.
