Description
In Biss 20, you count from 1 to 20 together, with each player saying one number in turn.
Okay, that sounds simple! And it would be if not for Fritz the bat who keeps coming up with new rules that you need to remember — and just when you've remembered one rule, he's already waiting around the corner with the next one. How many rules can you recall?

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Memory — Players count from 1 to 20, with new rules introduced each round that substitute numbers, requiring memory to keep track of the changing rules.
- Rule introduction — New rules are introduced gradually round after round, adding complexity and silliness.
- Set Collection — While not explicitly stated, the progressive addition of rules could be seen as collecting a set of conditions to remember.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is where I take a look at the last five new to me board games that I've played and I rank and review them in order of preference.
- Mechanically, this game is as weak as it gets, just rolling dice to see the outcome.
- The game just forces you to feel paranoid and which I think the is what the game is trying to do and the feeling the game is trying to get across.
- So this one again on paper is everything I like.
- But it does deliver this real satisfying feeling, and it does actually feel like you're playing a grander and bigger game.

Quotes (from this video)
- This is clearly um an Srank game.
- This is an amazing game that definitely deserves an S rank.
- Can you give a really simple game an S? Yeah, I think you can if it works well and it does work really well.
- I know almost all the cards by now. It's not that exciting anymore.
- Azul is amazing. I love this.
- This is one of my most favorite dungeon crawlers to be honest, and it's not very wellnown, I think.
- It's just really luck based.
- I like this a lot.
- Cluster is like where you put like magnets in like um a circle made out of um some string and you are trying to like place magnets so they don't are not attracted to other magnets otherwise you have to take them into your hands and when you have no magnets left you win.
- It's not a bad game but it's more like an activity right and not everybody likes it.
- The theme sells it for me, right?
- This is like Yatsi just a little bit more interactive because you have like uh you have like specific cards in the middle like 16 cards in a 4x4 grid in the middle with like the things you need to reach with your five dice by rolling three up to three times but you like put your token on it when you reach that so you block it for other players.
- This was one of the most positive rankings within the last I don't know a few months because we don't have one single D title and we have only one title in C and this one is like nice curve here right so actually if you ignore C and D we have a nice curve here how it should be in a tier list just very positive
