Volltreffer is a board game released in 1999 for 3–5 players, 30 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by Günter Burkhardt and its main mechanics are Trick-taking.
Volltreffer (Bullseye) is a trick taking game with three phases. In the first phase you buy your hand of cards one at a time, until all players have 8 cards. In the second phase, each player may play melds (3 of a kind, all 5 colors, smallest sum etc.) for points. The third phase is a standard trick-taking card game where you must follow suit with each trick worth points. The winner is the player who comes closest to the target score of 66 points.
Volltreffer supports 3–5 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 Volltreffer 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 Volltreffer 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.
Volltreffer has a complexity rating of 1.8 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.
