Scented Candles

Rules of the game

The names of the scented candles are standard in English!

This game can be played with 2-4 players. Before the game starts, place one candle of each scent type upside down spread out on the table. The remaining candles go into a separate container. Each player draws 1 combination card. This combination of 3 scented candles is what you need to collect. Each turn, flip one candle open on the table so all players can see it. The candle remains in the same place. Everyone looks at their own combination card. Who needs this scented candle? The player whose turn it is looks first. If you are the only one, you may take this candle from the container and place it under your combination card. If multiple players need this candle, then we play a candle duel! Each player takes turns rolling the dice. The one with the highest roll may collect the candle and place it in their row under the combination card. The losers get nothing. Continue flipping open a new candle each round. Keep going until someone is the first to collect all 3 scented candles in a row. 

TIP

Variation: You can also work with 2 or 3 combination cards instead of just one. After each round, you flip back the card that was shown. This adds a kind of memory game element to the game.
