penaltychallenge
Penalty Challenge is a football themed board game where players have to kick penalties (or stop them) using cards, a die and chips!
There are three possible directions where players can shoot the ball at: left, middle or right. Inside the goal each direction has circles with numbers. A penalty must be shot to one of the free circle. To do so, the shooter has to roll the die and get one of the numbers of the intended circle to score. If a shooter has a star, the number in the star of every circle will count as well.
A player in their turn will have the chance to kick a penalty at another players´ goal. The turn player will put a shooter card face down with the arrow pointing at the intended goal. Then the player of that goal will put a goalkeeper card face up showing their move to stop the penalty. Then, the shooter will reveal their card showing the ball direction. If the goalkeeper guesses it correctly (left, middle or right) they can put gloves chips (1, 2 or 3 gloves as their capacity) to block the circles. The shooter will indicate one of the remaining circles of that direction before rolling the die. If the goalkeeper does not guess it right, the shooter has all that direction circle options to choose. If the shooter scores it will count one goal in their scoreboard.
The first player to score 5 goals will be the winner of the game!

Rules summary
Welcome to Penalty Challenge, a fun football-themed board game where players have to kick penalties and stop them using cards, a die, and chips!
Objective: The objective of the game is to be the first player to score five goals.
Setup:
Shuffle the cards and deal each player three shooter cards, three goalkeeper cards, and one goalkeeper wild card. Place the remaining cards in two separate decks (shooters and goalkeepers) on the mat. Cards used during the game are placed in separate discard piles. Determine the starting player by having each player roll the die. The player with the highest number goes first. Gameplay:
On your turn, choose a shooter card from your hand and place it face down in the center square of the mat, with the arrow pointing towards the goal you intend to shoot at. The defending player then chooses a goalkeeper card from their hand and places it face up in the area square of the mat. The shooter reveals their card, indicating the direction they intend to shoot. If the defending player correctly guesses the direction, they may place glove chips (up to their capacity) on the corresponding circles in the goal area. The shooter then selects a free circle in the intended direction and rolls the die. If the number rolled matches the number in the selected circle, the shooter scores a goal. If the shooter card has a star, they may use the number in the star instead of rolling the die. Each player also has a wildcard goalkeeper card that allows them to know the shot direction and place a goalkeeper card after the shooter has revealed their card. The first player to score five goals wins the game. Additional rules:
After a player scores four goals, they must shoot at a player who still has their wildcard goalkeeper card. If all cards from the shooter and goalkeeper decks have been used, the discard piles are shuffled and become the new decks. Penalty Challenge is a fun and strategic game that combines luck and skill. Have fun playing!
