Artline: Louvre (2022)

Do you consider yourself an art connoisseur? Or, maybe, you know nothing of fine arts? This game works great for both cases! Artline is a game of associations based on gorgeous paintings from the world-famous art museums. Current edition includes 96 original masterpieces licensed from the Musée du Louvre in Paris. During the game, the players develop a common grid of cards on the table and define common features for each row and column. Each player starts with 5 cards in hand, and the goal is to get rid of them. One card is played per turn, and you may: 1. Just extend a row/column and draw a new card. The card you play has to fit just one feature of a row or a column. Come up with one if there’s none yet! What could bring a Picasso painting and a classic portrait together? Let's say, a white headdress! Now all the paintings you play in this row or column must contain a person with the white headpiece. OR 2. Play your card at the intersection and don’t draw a new card. The card you play has to fit both features of a row and a column. Think of one or even both of them! Your aim is to get rid of cards, but you don't draw a new one only if you manage to place a card that matches both row and column features, so you have to be very attentive, come up with challenging features, and think ahead to play all your cards on the table! – description from publisher The 112 cards from Artline Louvre, showing paintings from the museum’s collection, are compatible with Dixit (but have a different back side design).
