Description

The setting of this cooperative strategy game for two is beautiful 16th century Verona. There, two bitterly hostile families stand in the way of Romeo & Juliet's love happiness. The players take on the roles of the two lovers. You won't be able to communicate freely, so you'll have to make your partner understand your plans, and find out where they want to meet you. The tragic couple is not allowed to speak freely to each other and can only arrange to meet in secret. Otherwise the hatred between the families will deepen. By cleverly playing cards and messages, the players try to ensure that love triumphs over hate in the end. The game box unfolds into an atmospherically designed theatre scene. On this stage, Romeo & Juliet and their companions move to different locations. There are 9 chapters and just as many difficulty levels. This allows the game to be perfectly adapted and varied. To win, love must reach its peak before the end of the third act. If, on the other hand, hatred reaches its lowest point, fate takes its toll on the star-crossed lovers, and you will have lost. —description from the French and the German publisher (translated)
