I have been looking at this game for some time. It's more or less from the same family, press your luck or choose, as Coloretto but a little lighter. I noticed that the English release was available, Circus Flohcati, but the game snob I am I wondered if I could get the original German. Well, good old eBay delivered at a very reasonable price. Here is the description from funagain
The object of the game is to collect many valuable Circus cards to achieve the highest points score. In the course of the game, cards with circus attractions are displayed in one row in the middle of the table. On his turn, a player chooses and takes a card from the row, either into his hand, or to form a Trio for bonus points. Before selecting his card the player may, if he wishes, draw cards and add them to the row in order to improve his choices. However, if he draws an attraction which is already in the row, he forfeits his right to take a card. The game ends when one player succeeds in staging a Gala Show, with one Circus card from each attraction!
Pssst. Don't tell my wife. Kidding.
