マンドリンオーケストラ！ (Mandolin Orchestra!) is a Japanese card game. The game was produced in a limited edition of ten copies, sold at the Tokyo Game Market December 2016. Mandolin Orchestra! is for 4 players only. Each player is trying to assemble a full mandolin orchestra, needing six instruments (first and second mandolin, mandola, mandocello, guitar, and double bass). The cards show the instrument, a value, and a colour, according to the type of song that musician prefers. The game is driven by a deck of event cards. Another set of song cards tells the players what instruments and values are required to perform the song. Players can draft cards when they match their colour, and by trading with other players, they can get their orchestra together. Once a player can match a song card, they declare and the music begins.
