Description
Gracias is a fun and interactive card game that's perfect for a group of friends or family, supporting 3 to 6 players for a lively game night. With a playtime of just 45 minutes, you can easily fit in a few rounds without feeling overwhelmed. The game rules are incredibly simple, so you can dive right in and start playing without needing to spend hours learning complex strategies. Designed by the renowned Richard Borg and Alan R. Moon, Gracias has been a favorite among gamers since its release in 2005. The gameplay is centered around card drafting and set collection, with a twist that adds a social element to the game. On each turn, you'll take a stack of three cards, keep one hidden and one visible, and pass the second visible card to another player. This mechanic creates an exciting dynamic, as you'll need to balance your own strategy with the knowledge that you're also influencing another player's chances. At the end of the round, the player with the largest stack of cards in each color won't score points for those cards, while all other players will, adding a layer of strategy and unpredictability to the game. With its unique blend of card drafting, set collection, and social interaction, Gracias is a great choice for anyone looking for a light, entertaining game that's easy to learn and fun to play.
