German friends, a game question

Post by JigokuBosatsu »

Hey all, I ran into a copy of a game called "Das Rote", which appears to be German Jenga. The instructions are all in Deutsch and mine has atrophied embarassingly. It appears to have standard Jenga rules, but also an alternate play mode. Do any of you have experience with this game enough to explain the extra rules? Or should I grab a pic and see if you can explain it?

(Yes, I am aware of Google, but I'm neurologically compromised and googling "the red" is not particularly helpful in the first place.)

You can buy my books, yes you can. Out of print and retired, sorry.

I've never heard of this jenga variety, but i can translate if you post a pic of the instructions.

Peculiar properties of spacetime ensure that the perception of the magnitude of Soon is fluid and dependent, not on an individual's time-reference, but on spatial and cultural location. A marketer generally perceives Soon as a finite, known, yet unspeakable time-interval; to a fan, the interval appears greater, and may in fact approach the infinite, becoming Never. Once the interval has passed, however, a certain time-lensing effect seems to occur, and the time-interval becomes vanishingly small. We therefore see the strange result that the same fragment of spacetime may be observed, in quick succession, as Soon, Never, and All Too Quickly.
