Maask is a board game released in 2004 for 2–6 players, 10 minutes per game, and ages 6 and up. It was designed by Thierry Denoual and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Memory.
An all-wooden game from the makers of Gobblet. Find the most jewels hidden in the branches of the crown, and you will rule Maaskland. There are 12 identical branches, with colored jewels hidden underneath them. When you roll the dice you pick up two branches, trying to reveal the colors that were rolled on the dice. If you pick the right branches, they are yours. Remember where each color of jewel is in the circle. Remember which jewels your opponents won, too, and you can steal them. High quality pieces, good for children and adults.
Maask 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 Maask is 10 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 Maask for ages 6 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.
Maask has a complexity rating of 1.1 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.
