Description
Picnic is a super speedy game that's all about getting rid of your hand of cards faster than everyone else, and it's a blast to play with friends and family. In this quick game, you and up to five other players are on a mission to bring your favorite snacks to the picnic, and the first player to ditch all their cards wins. The game is ridiculously easy to learn, with simple rules that can be explained in no time, making it perfect for a fun night in or a party with a big group. Here's how it works: each card has six different suits, and each suit is related to a different snack. At the start of the game, you choose your favorite snack, and then it's go time. Players flip a card and everyone has to play a card from their hand with a higher number in their chosen snack's suit - and they have to do it fast. It's a real-time free-for-all, with everyone playing simultaneously and trying to be the quickest. The cards all have numbers in them, so you've got to have your wits about you and recognize the patterns to play the right card at the right time. With a playtime of just 15 minutes, Picnic is the perfect game to whip out when you've got a spare quarter of an hour and you're looking for something fun to do. Designed by Martin Nedergaard Andersen and released in 2018, this game is a great example of a fast-paced, action-packed party game that's all about having fun and being quick on your feet. So gather your friends, choose your snacks, and get ready to dive into the speedy world of Picnic - you won't be disappointed.
