In 15 Days, players take turns choosing two out of four actions: drawing season cards, drafting from the market or discard pile, placing cards on their player board, or discarding cards to gain wild cards. The goal is to complete all four season sets or empty one of the season decks. Players collect wooden animals that grant small advantages and build longest number sequences in each season. The gameplay emphasizes tactical hand management and set collection.
Who Is This Game For?
15 Days is a medium-weight game for players aged 14 and up. With a short playtime of about 20 minutes, it suits quick sessions and players with some experience in card games. The rules are straightforward but require tactical thinking and planning.
How It Works
Each turn, players pick two of four actions: take two season cards from either of the two season decks, draft a face-up card from the market or discard pile, place cards on their player board to form season sets, or discard cards to get wild cards. Controlling majority in a season grants wooden animals that provide small benefits like increased hand size or discounts. Scoring counts longest uninterrupted sequences, wooden animals, and penalties for empty corners.
