Superfection is a board game released in 1975 for 2–6 players, 30 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. Its main mechanics are Hand Management.
The object of this game is to pair geometric forms and then place the composite piece into the pop-up tray in the least amount of time. The pop-up tray is a 4x4 grid. To start, mix and scatter the geometric shapes making sure that matched pairs are not together. Then turn the timer on and try to match the forms into pairs placing each completed pair on the pop-up tray. When finished press the timer to stop it. However much time you have left is your score. If you fail to get all of the pairs collected the pop-up tray will pop-up throwing all the pieces out and giving you no score for the round. Re-implements: Perfection
Superfection 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 Superfection is 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 Superfection 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.
Superfection has a complexity rating of 1.3 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.
