Stamp Swap is a light strategic board game that takes players into the world of stamp collecting — a lively gathering of collectors where everyone builds their perfect collection and presents it in competitions.
The game is based on philately. Players participate in a multi-day event where they collect, trade, and display stamps to create the most valuable and interesting collection possible.
It’s not just about quantity, but especially about rare and thematically cohesive stamps, such as gold (high-value) ones, which give the game a sense of collector’s passion and aesthetic creativity.
Players choose stamps from a shared pool (both face-up and face-down). Each player divides their selected items into two groups, and an opponent chooses one — the remaining group stays with the original player. The goal is to create the most meaningful and valuable stamp collection, organizing it on your player board for optimal scoring.
The game is played over three rounds, in which players first collect stamps, then trade them, and finally display them for points based on various goals.
Stamp Swap is a fun and distinctive collection game that, with its clever swapping mechanic, creates a tense and interactive experience for all lovers of strategy and beautiful collections. 📬
