Description

Bargain Hunter is a classic card game designed by the renowned Uwe Rosenberg, first published in 1998. This easy-to-learn game is perfect for 3 to 4 players and can be played in just 45 minutes. The game features a unique deck with six suits, each containing cards numbered one through nine, with two of each card. Players start by selecting a card value to collect, which is placed face-up in front of them, and then engage in a trick-taking game with the remaining cards. As players take turns, they can follow suit or use a card as trump, adding a layer of strategy to the game. The goal is to collect cards of the chosen value, which are worth points, while avoiding others that will cost you points. The twist comes at the end of each hand, when you can convert one value of cards from your "bad" pile to your "good" pile, potentially changing your strategy for the next hand. With its simple rules and engaging gameplay, Bargain Hunter is a fun and challenging game that's sure to entertain.
