Game description from the publisher:
Germany, Spain, or perhaps the outsider, Costa Rica? In Fußball-Fieber, each player chooses a team and tries to lead it through the group stage of the World Cup. Through the use of action cards, a player can both control the game play of his own matches and cause trouble in games between other players. This promises exciting duels that never turn out the same way.
Each player chooses one of the 32 teams from the 2014 World Cup, and leads it through the group phase of the World Cup. With the help of action/reaction cards, each player can try to control the result of his own matches, and also cause trouble for the other players.
And for those players who manage to qualify, a knock-out phase with quarter-finals, semi-finals and the great final awaits them.
Players have to manage a hand of cards to maximize their result over the 3 group matches. Each card can be played on any team: his own, his opponent, but also any team from the other matches. For the knock-out phase, players get a new hand for those 3 new matches.
The winner ? There can be only one: the last team standing, winner of the final and WORLD CHAMPION.
