Each game card (also called a Tabla) is made up of 16 different images. There are 54 possible images.
Set out your tokens for use. Game Hosts will call out the images one at a time.
If the hosts announce an image included on your Tabla, place a token on its spot.
Once all 16 images on your Tabla have been announced, your Tabla is now complete.

ABOUT THE GAME

Censotería is a modern twist on the traditional Mexican game of Lotería. Angie Sanchez of La Luz Center grew up playing Lotería with her family. The fond memories of the original game bringing community together, inspired her to create Censotería as an educational tool to raise awareness about the importance of the 2020 Census & presidential election. This project was made possible with support from the Latino Community Foundation’s Just Recovery efforts in Northern California and the Design Action Collective. The Just Recovery Partnership is made up of 10 Latino-led nonprofits who are using healing, culture and arts to inspire civic engagement.
