Description
Spot it!, a.k.a. Dobble, is a simple pattern recognition game in which players try to find an image shown on two cards.
Each card in original Spot it! features eight different symbols, with the symbols varying in size from one card to the next. Any two cards have exactly one symbol in common. For the basic Spot it! game, reveal one card, then another. Whoever spots the symbol in common on both cards claims the first card, then another card is revealed for players to search, and so on. Whoever has collected the most cards when the 55-card deck runs out wins!
Rules for different games – each an observation game with a speed element – are included with Spot it!, with the first player to find a match either gaining or getting rid of a card. Multiple versions of Spot it! have been published, with images in each version ranging from Halloween to hockey to baseball to San Francisco.
The game is sold as Spot it! in the USA and Dobble in Europe, with slight differences between the two editions.
Note: some versions have fewer cards and fewer symbols per card. (E.g. 30 cards with 6 symbols each.): Spot it! 1,2,3

Quotes (from this video)
- My sister has been getting more into games recently, and she wants to get her 5-year-old into them, too.
- So, this year for Christmas, one of the things I gave her and my 5-year-old nephew is a box of games provided by Asthma.
- It's Asthma's 30th anniversary, so in celebration, they provided some of their board game staples like Katana, Ticket to Ride, and Azul.
- They also provided Spot It, which is one of the best games for kids, and I knew my nephew would be into it.
- If you want to get in on the 30th anniversary fun, you can go to my asthma day where you can play an interactive experience, compete for the leaderboard, discover game puns, win prizes, and celebrate the BOARD GAME COMMUNITY.

- So, it's a much more like, I guess, approachable, you know, campaign.
- Questline, which is a card drafting game set in their definitely not D&D universe.
- It sounds a little bit like Fantasy Realms.
- This is a new standalone board game set in the same world as Isle of Cats
- Your expedition to the frozen lands in the north has suddenly become a rescue mission and you must rescue as many penguins as possible before the ice melts.
- So, it's an open drafting and penguin placement board game.
