About the game

What is Amanite?

In Amanite, it's all about deduction and risk-taking. Make better choices than your opponents by picking the right mushrooms (and avoiding the bad ones!). The information you choose will be valuable, and the choices made by other players will teach you a lot! You will have 3 initial clues, different ones for each player, but you will need to have more to cross the information and deduce the real values of each mushrooms. First, because your clues will be shuffled and you won't be sure about anything and also, because you will have to chase information regarding the other mushrooms. During the game, player will share the mushrooms with a "split & choose" mechanism, and the choices of each player will give information to everyone around the table. It will again help the players to eventually choose the best mushrooms. A game of Amanite is played in 3 rounds. At the end of these rounds, the player who has earned the most victory points with the tokens they have collected wins the game. But be careful, players who have collected too many poisonous mushrooms will not be able to claim victory! —description from the publisher
