Description
The Bottle Imp is a trick-taking game for 2 to 4 players that's easy to learn and plays out in just 30 minutes. Based on the short story by Robert Louis Stevenson, the game has a unique twist on traditional trick-taking mechanics. Players exchange cards and try to win tricks, with the goal of gaining the most points over a series of hands. The game's twist comes in the form of the "bottle," which has a constantly changing price that affects which cards are considered trump. As players win tricks and take control of the bottle, the price decreases, making it harder to win and increasing the risk of scoring negative points. With its simple rules and engaging gameplay, The Bottle Imp is a fun and challenging game for fans of card games and trick-taking mechanics.
