Ricochons: Quand Satan brouille l’écoute

About this board game

Ricochons: Quand Satan brouille l’écoute is a cooperative word-association puzzle for 1–99 players, with games lasting about 20 minutes.

Each box contains 30 grids filled with words. In every grid, players work together to complete a dialogue by solving riddles and associating words and ideas in the correct sequence. There are no restrictions on communication, so everyone can freely share thoughts, suggestions, and interpretations.

As the group solves a grid, the words left over form a rebus. This rebus helps players complete part of an existing dialogue, turning the results of the puzzle into another piece of the unfolding story.

• Choose a grid to solve; each grid can be completed separately.
• Associate words and ideas in the right sequence to solve the riddles.
• Use the remaining words to decipher a rebus and continue the dialogue.

Although the grids can be tackled individually, the dialogue continues from one grid to the next. Together, these linked conversations tell the story of a funny detectives investigation, giving the cooperative word puzzles a connected narrative thread.

Ricochons: Quand Satan brouille l’écoute finishes when a grid is solved, making each session a focused challenge built around communication, deduction, and playful connections between words. Released in 2021, it offers a compact collaborative experience for a very wide player count.
