It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Time to open up the boxes of Christmas decorations, untangle the lights, replace broken bulbs, and decorate the tree. To have a bit of fun, you’ve decided to compete with your fellow decorators to see who can build their sets of lights the fastest. Sift through the bulbs, exchange information, and arrange them in the right order as you trade and build your strands. Ho ho ho! Players swap, play, trade and draw Christmas Light Bulbs into their own sets of lights in an attempt to be the first to complete two sets. The main game is designed by Adam Collins and Chad Head. It is illustrated by Dave Perillo. The game also includes additional rules from different designers (Christopher Chung, Chad Elkins, Daniel Zayas, Don Riddle, Scot and Kenny Eaton, & more!) for 12 bonus games suitable for very young gamers and adults. These bonus games include modified rules for classics like Memory and Old Maid as well as brand new original designs. Holiday fun for the entire family! Edition Notes: The First Edition contains 11 bonus games and was the original version of the main game we released in 2018. The Second Edition is our new version (releasing holiday 2020) featuring a slightly modified ruleset for the main game, some graphic design changes, and we added another bonus game taking the total of bonus games from 11 to 12.
