About the game
In Game Over, each player is a small barbarian looking for his princess, but she's locked away in a dungeon — represented by a 5x5 square of face-down cards — and to free her you need to locate the key. To visit a room, place your character on a card, then reveal it to see what you encounter; perhaps something unfortunate like Blorks, the exit (which you can hope to use later), or perhaps even the key... Game Over is based on the comics of the same name illustrated by Midam.

Questions and answers
Game Over 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 Game Over is 15 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 Game Over 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.
Game Over has a complexity rating of 1.2 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.
Game Over belongs to these categories: Card Game and Children's Game. Its main mechanics are Memory.
