Description
Tichu is a partnership climbing card game that's all about getting rid of your hand while scoring points. With a standard 52-card pack and four special cards, the game is easy to learn but full of strategic depth. Players take turns trying to beat the current top card combination, with the option to pass if they can't. The goal is to be the first team to reach 1000 points, earned by winning tricks and calling "Tichu" or "Grand Tichu" to predict your team's success. In this 60-minute game for four players, teamwork and strategy come together in a fun and challenging way. With no necessary in-game text, Tichu is accessible to players of all languages. Designed by Urs Hostettler and first published in 1991, Tichu has become a classic card game that's perfect for groups of friends looking for a engaging and social gaming experience.
