The game offers multiple paths to win, including immediate victory conditions and point-earning abilities. Characters like the Gambler and the Resistance have special abilities, such as discarding cards to draw new ones or reversing the strength of card ranks. With 30 to 40 minutes of playtime, Tricktakers is an engaging game for 2 to 5 players, offering a fun and challenging experience with each playthrough.
