Description
Band of Tricks is a fast-paced trick-taking game for 3 to 5 players that's easy to learn and plays out in just 30 minutes. Designed by Yasuyuki Nakamura and published in 2020, this game is all about strategy and a little bit of luck. The game consists of four suits with asymmetric ranks, and three of them have a rock-paper-scissors relationship that adds a fun twist to the classic trick-taking mechanic. Players bid on how many tricks they'll win with each suit, with the fourth suit serving as a wild card. The goal is to hit your bid exactly, earning points for each trick won, but be careful - if you're off, you'll lose points. With its unique mechanics and simple rules, Band of Tricks is a great game for anyone looking for a fun and engaging experience.
