Description

Time to walk about town and take some pictures! It's the 1960s in Japan, and you have a half-size camera that lets you take half-size vertical pictures. Let's see whether you can put together good shots...

In Wind the Film!, you're trying to organize pictures on your roll so that they appear in the right order. Each player has a hand of cards, and on a turn, you'll add 1-3 cards to the front of your hand (without changing their order), move one card in your hand closer to the front, then discard as many cards from the back of your hand as the number of cards that you added. When the sunset card comes out, you can take no more pictures, and everyone scores for what's on their camera.

The cards all have numbers and colors on them, and you try to line them up in hand to score the most points possible.

Quotes (from this video)

Are you looking for some really quick, fun card games that you can play on a week night, maybe after work, or maybe after dinner?
The idea of taking photographs and capturing those memories feels really personal to me.
I really love it when a card game has rule set that you can teach in about 2 minutes, but then each and every decision feels weighted and layered.
In fact, this was a game I picked up 2 years ago on my trip to Melbourne and I walked into the shop and I thought, 'Wow, that game, there's something about that game that just makes me smile, makes my heart glow.'
There's a few of those little micro decisions that really makes this game super fast, but super tense.
This is actually one of those great um if you're hanging out with a group of people on the weekend or you're around at a barbecue, this is a game to get out that will really have people going, 'Ah, yeah, let's just play that.'
