Overview

Kobito is all about creating rainbows to win the pots of gold at the end of those rainbows, all the while being helped by ‘kobito’ figures (leprechauns/gnomes). Each pot of gold contains a certain number of points. But only the player who finishes the rainbow gets the gold. To try and avoid helping others, each player also has their own personal studio in which they can prepare rainbows before sending them to a pot of gold. This comes with risks however, because each personal rainbow makes you play more cards – and if you can’t, you get a penalty! The game ends when all but two pots of gold have been won. Players add up the points won from the pots of gold and deduct any penalties they might have received, the player with the higest score wins.
