Dusty tables

Spanish publisher Mercurio has scored a huge hit with their game Pelusas, originally designed by Reiner under the title Hit, a game that’s now been published in at least eight different languages and art styles around the world.

Pelusas means “dust balls” and just like real dust, the game is steadily spreading across the Iberian Peninsula, covering tables and even turning players into walking, giggling dust balls.

A group of colleagues from a cancer research team in Barcelona sent us these pictures showing how they celebrated Carnival by dressing up as Pelusas!

Also, we wish Mercurio all the best for their 20th anniversary which they were celebrating at InterOcio in Madrid in March 2025!
