INTRODUCTION

Whether at work, during the evenings or over the weekend, “fika” is an integral part of Swedish life and is much more than just a coffee break. It is about making space in your daily life to chat over a hot drink, as you nibble delicious pastries.

In Fika, you are a street café owner attempting to outearn your competitor, by skillfully arranging the cards in your own café and manipulating those of your opponent, so that you can be the first to win two rounds.

HOW TO PLAY

Every round is made up of 2 phases: You will first determine the primary and secondary suit colors for the round, and then you start playing your cards. To play, pick one card from your hand simultaneously and put it face down in front of you. Reveal your selected card simultaneously. Put cards into your café, respecting the order of initiative, and choose whether to resolve their effects.

SCORING

At the end of the round, review your café from left to right to see which objectives have been completed. Every card has one objective, which earns you coins if you have that card in your café and you fulfill its requirements. If a Group card has been put in front of a card, that card’s coin reward is either doubled or tripled, depending on which half of the Group points towards you. Add up all the coins you have gained from your objectives. If you have earned the most coins, you win the round and get 1 Tip card. If you now have 2 Tip cards, the game ends and you win! Otherwise, set up for the next round and continue playing.
