Roll and color! Easy learn, puzzly coloring game for 1 to 5 players.
Caminito is a colorful destination in Buenos Aires, Argentina! Early immigrants painted their apartments with free leftover paint from the nearby harbor. Players celebrate the colorful history of Caminito and other similar communities across the globe by using colored pencils to color buildings with a diverse set of colors to score best.
Each player has a coloring sheet with a building and scoring areas on it. There are 3 building sizes. The apartments that make up each building have 2 or more features: doors, roofs, walls, and windows. At the start of a round all pencils are rolled into the middle of the table. Each turn, players select (draft) one colored pencil and color in 1 or 2 features based on the symbols showing on the pencil.
Will you score Personal Bonus points?
During the quick setup, players color in the features of the apartments in their Personal Bonus area creating color combinations they must match during play to score. Points are also scored for colorful rows, columns, and apartments - as well as for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in completing all of a specific feature (doors, roofs, or windows).
Earn coins for end game points, or spend to make a pencil WILD.
The game ends when one or more players has colored in all the apartment walls. Players make a final check for points scored. Most points wins.
SOLO play is called No Match since each round after rolling all pencils (colors) those showing symbols matching another pencil must be set aside unused for the round. Don't color walls in too fast, ending the game too soon! Each feature not colored in is -10 points. The color scheme may be whacky/beautiful, but no paint is no good. Achieving an A++ on the rating chart is a win.
