Who would love this:  Kids/ adults enjoy fast-paced speed game 

From the creators of the wildly popular TENZI, SLAPZI, and BUILDZI comes another fantastic release - CHIPZI. It’s a fast-paced, easy-to-learn matching game that sparks playful competition. A big thanks to Divisible by Zero for providing a review copy!

Why I love ❤️ this game: 

(1) 49 Double-Sided Chips - 7 Colours/ Numbers

The game comes with 49 double-sided chips in seven colors, numbered 1–7. At its core, CHIPZI is a speedy, family-friendly tile-flipping race where players hunt for matches in numbers or colors. Setup is simple—chips go face-down in the center, someone shouts “Go!”, and the chaos begins. We kicked things off with Color CHIPZI: each player picks a color and races to be the first to uncover all seven. That’s it—easy to learn, lightning fast, and ridiculously addictive!

(2) Rules for 8 Speedy Variations

True to Carma Games’ style, CHIPZI isn’t just one game—it comes with rules for eight speedy variations plus two slower, thinky ones. Perfect for family game night or even sneaky learning of numbers and colors! Try Number CHIPZI, racing to collect seven of the same number; or Countdown CHIPZI, grabbing 7 through 1 in order. For a real brain-burner, attempt Perfect CHIPZI—seven chips with no repeated numbers or colors. There’s also Blitz CHIPZI, where everyone races for the same color, and Target CHIPZI, where chips must add up to a chosen number between 15–30. Want quick puzzles? Go for Play 8 CHIPZI (pairs that sum to 8) or Missing CHIPZI (figure out which chip is gone). Endless twists, endless laughs!

(3) 2 Non-Speed Game Variations

Not into frantic flipping? Don’t worry—CHIPZI also has two chill, non-speed modes. In Knockout CHIPZI, one unlucky chip is chosen as the “Knockout” (say, the Blue 5). Flip carefully—hit the wrong color or number and you keep flipping… until you bust by revealing the dreaded Knockout chip! Then there’s Memory CHIPZI, a classic matching challenge where you hunt for pairs by color or number. Fast hands not required—just sharp eyes and a good memory.

(4) Great Components

The chunky plastic chips feel great in hand—sturdy, easy to flip, and built to survive plenty of table chaos. Plus, the clever storage tube makes it super portable, perfect for taking the fun anywhere.
