About the game
Señor Pepper is a fast card game, with the goal to get the right Pepper figure faster than your opponents. On the cards in this game are different colors Señor Peppers: Yellow, Red and Green. Or all 3 the colors. The game begins by making equal stacks of cards for each player and putting down the three Señor Peppers at the center of the table. Next, it is a matter of every player turning 1 card at the same time and making it visible to everyone. Then players must count how many Señor Peppers are visible in each color. The color that is most visible on the cards is the color Señor Pepper to be caught. But beware! If there is an equal score between colors, nothing should be taken! Are you the fastest? Then you win the round! —description from the publisher (translated)

Questions and answers

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 Señor Pepper is 15 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Señor Pepper for ages 7 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.
