Description

Dois is a trick-taking card game that's easy to learn and fun to play with 3 to 4 friends. The game is unique in that it combines two decks, one for numbers and one for suits, which are shuffled together and dealt out to players. To start, you need at least 3 suit cards and 3 number cards in your hand, and then you predict how many tricks you'll win. The gameplay involves playing tricks with a twist - you play two cards, a number and suit card, on the first play, and then one card per turn, trying to keep your other card visible. You score points based on your prediction, and the player with the most points after 8 games wins. With a playtime of just 0 to 60 minutes, Dois is a great game for a quick game night or a longer tournament-style competition.
