Emil i Lönneberga

A card game with a bluffing element based on one of author Astrid Lindgren's characters, published in the late 70s or early 80s. Each player is trying to get rid of an initial hand containing mischief cards and good behaviour cards among others. Mischief cards can be played face up at the risk of gaining penalty points, or face down. If a player plays a father card, each other player must show the top card of their play pile if it's face down, risking even more penalty points if it's a mischief card. —user summary Note: Not to be confused with another Alga game with the same name and the same theme, Emil fra Lönneberget.
