About this game

Kaleidos hands everyone an identical, gorgeously busy scene and sixty seconds to spot as many things starting with a random letter as you can. Simple in premise, brutal in practice, because the words everyone else missed are worth triple, so hunting for the obscure detail in the corner beats writing down the obvious thing everybody sees first. It scales effortlessly from a cozy pair to a full party table, and there is real joy in someone shouting out an object nobody else even noticed was there. Fast, sociable, and quietly great for sharpening your eye.
