Voll auf die 18 is a board game released in 2022 for 2–5 players, 18 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Marc-Uwe Kling and its main mechanics are Hand Management and Cooperative Game.
Voll auf die 18 is a funny, co-operative, and chaotic kangaroo card game with dice that also offers 100 good arguments against Nazis. Two to five players aged ten and up take on the roles of kangaroos, small artists or other members of the "anti-social network". Together they want to convince Nazis to make the world a little better. Each Nazi has an individual IQ. The players have to play cards with arguments (and numbers from 1 to 6), the sum of which corresponds exactly to the IQ of the respective Nazi. It is possible to "argue" alone or together. Some Nazis have a soft spot for certain things (for example, card suits) and bring further specifications into play. In addition, each character has its own rules of play that must be followed. The game is accompanied by an app that provides 18 increasingly difficult levels and also acts as a timer as new Nazis appear at regular intervals. The group loses if it has been surrounded by Nazis. If, on the other hand, all Nazis could be convinced within the time limit, the players win together.
Voll auf die 18 supports 2–5 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 Voll auf die 18 is 18 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 Voll auf die 18 for ages 10 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.
