Charmed by Dobble, a French card game my 5 y.o can play based on a neat mathematical construction (this one: http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/442043/covering-with-most-possible-equal-size-subsets-having-pairwise-singleton-interse …)

@avibryant not 'ruined', maybe --- bit you could get 2 pics, 2 words, or 1 pic/1 word, & seems less canonical wrt finite proj. plane math -
@avibryant but maybe I'm wrong and there's some 'nice' choice of how to choose pic vs. word on all cards at once? would be nice if so -
@jcreed oh, you mean that sometimes you'd have a picture of a horse on one card and "horse" on the other? -
@jcreed yes, that would be more interesting (especially for kids learning to read) and does destroy the symmetry a bit. -
@avibryant yup that's the version I saw. Seems like a fun way to teach reading though! -
@jcreed you could regain some symmetry/elegance if you had N different representations, ie if you had an image + words in 7 languages. -
@avibryant@jcreed Wait, how do you know each other? -
@Eigenvariable@jcreed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ how does anyone on Twitter know anyone, really.
