Description

In the fast-paced card game 77, players compete to be the first to score 77 points by winning rounds with the highest value of cards. With a simple set of rules that can be explained quickly, 3 to 4 players can dive into the game and start playing in no time. The deck consists of 49 cards numbered 1 through 7 in seven colored suits, and each player lays down a meld of matching numbers or suits from their hand of seven cards. The goal is to play the most valuable combination of cards to win each round, as the winner gets to keep all the cards played by all players. The game continues until one player's running total reaches 77, at which point they are declared the winner. With a playtime of just 30 minutes, 77 is a quick and exciting game that's perfect for a fun night in with friends.
