Family Flutter-By is a board game released in 2016 for 2–4 players, 20 minutes per game, and ages 5 and up. It was designed by Martin Nedergaard Andersen and its main mechanics are Real-Time, Pattern Recognition, and Speed Matching.
Description from the publisher: The Flutter-By family enjoys the summer day and flutters back and forth across the meadow — but you are looking only for specific butterflies! By skillfully folding the flaps on your butterfly board up and down in Family Flutter-By, different colorful butterflies come up. Who will be the fastest to discover the right butterflies?
Family Flutter-By supports 2–4 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 Family Flutter-By is 20 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 Family Flutter-By for ages 5 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.
Family Flutter-By has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
