About the game
Description from the publisher: Baby Blues Continues is an expansion for the card game Baby Blues with different parts that can be used separately or in combination. They are: 1) Cards allowing for play with up to six players. 2) A variant for two players: When you play the original game with two players, there are two adjustments compared to the normal game. First, you can't trade, and second, the points on the back of the cards are irrelevant. With the variant, this won't be the case anymore. Players now can trade cards with a closet and the game can end early because the babies are picked up by their parents, so both players have points to count. 3) A new type of card — the action card: On your turn, you can play the same cards as in the base game, but in addition you can play as many action cards as you want. With these cards you can transfer problems to other babies or trade babies with an opponent, making the game a little bit meaner and also more tactical. 4) A new problem — the sick baby: What will happen with a baby if you give him too much pie at a birthday party? He will become nauseous and this problem will only be solved when he vomits. The owner of the baby can choose the direction and the baby to his left or right will start crying immediately. Luckily there is medicine available, but will you be able to give it to the baby in time?

Questions and answers
Baby Blues Continues supports 2–6 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Baby Blues Continues is 20–30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Baby Blues Continues for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.

The credited designers of Baby Blues Continues are: Jurgen Spreutels. These credits come from the published game data and name the people responsible for the game’s design, not its illustrators or publishers.

The catalogue lists Baby Blues Continues as an expansion for Baby Blues. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Baby Blues to use it. Check that your edition of Baby Blues is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
