About this board game

Facecards is a 20-minute game for 3–7 players about finding commonality between pairs of cards. With cards depicting animals, people, and objects, players look for a topic that connects the cards they choose.

During play, each player selects from a set of available cards with the goal of creating a shared topic between each pair. The key is to identify the correct connection linking the chosen cards and present a common idea that fits them both.

  • Choose from cards featuring animals, people, and objects.
  • Build pairs around a common topic.
  • Earn points for identifying correct topics.
  • Compete across several rounds for the highest score.

Facecards rewards players who can spot relationships between seemingly different subjects. The animal, person, or object shown on a card provides the starting point, while the shared topic brings the pair together.

As the rounds continue, players gather points for their correct topics. The winner is the player with the highest score after several rounds, making the game a concise test of observation and association.

Released in 2017, Facecards offers a focused card-based challenge for groups of three to seven. Its straightforward objective—find the right commonality within pairs of cards—keeps every choice centered on making meaningful connections.
