What is Hanabi
Hanabi—named for the Japanese word for "fireworks"—is a cooperative game in which players try to create the perfect fireworks show by placing the cards on the table in the right order. (In Japanese, hanabi is written as 花火; these are the ideograms flower and fire, respectively.)
The card deck consists of five different colors of cards, numbered 1–5 in each color. For each color, the players try to place a row in the correct order from 1–5. Sounds easy, right? Well, not quite, as in this game you hold your cards so that they're visible only to other players. To assist other players in playing a card, you must give them hints regarding the numbers or the colors of their cards. Players must act as a team to avoid errors and to finish the fireworks display before they run out of cards.
An extra suit of cards, rainbow colored, is also provided for advanced or variant play.
Hanabi was originally published as part of Hanabi & Ikebana.

What the community says about Hanabi
Played it once - a smart deduction card game, perfect filler or family game.
Uno de mis juegos favoritos , un cooperativo en donde es necesario tener buena memoria, formular buenas preguntas y saber descartarse
Es un juego de deducción, similar al cinquillo, pero tiene la novedad de que cada jugador ve las cartas de los demás, pero no las propias y tiene que pasarles información dandoles pistas. El jugador puede escoger entre dar una pista, jugar una carta o descartar. El descarte permite además recuperar pistas que son limitadas para todos los jugadores (creo que 8). Hay que formar 5 palos numerados del 1 al 5.
Es un clásico juego party colaborativo en el que jugaremos sin ver nuestras cartas y viendo solamente las cartas de los compañero. Es sencillo, entre todos hay que lograr colocar las cartas de forma consecutiva y por colores por medio de un sistema de pistas y con la comunicación extremadamente limitada. Fácil de jugar, muy difícil de vencer. Es adictivo, lo más probable es que os piquéis intentado vencer el juego. Todo contenido en una pequeñísima caja trasportable. Muy recomendable.
