Description
Get ready to enter a prehistoric world of bidding and trick-taking with Rex, a classic card game that's been thrilling players since 1993. Designed by Shelby Mayo, this simple yet strategic game is perfect for 2 to 6 players looking for a fun and exciting experience that can be learned in no time. With a playtime of just 30 minutes, Rex is great for a quick game night with friends or family, and its easy-to-explain rules make it accessible to players of all ages and skill levels. In Rex, players compete to earn points by bidding on the number of points they think they can make, and then trying to make those points by playing cards in tricks. The game is played with a deck of 48 cards, featuring three suits and royal cards that can make all the difference in the game. As players take turns playing cards and trying to outmaneuver each other, the tension builds and the excitement grows. The first player to reach 500 points wins, but be careful - if you bid too high and don't make your points, you'll lose points instead of gaining them. With its unique blend of auction and trick-taking mechanics, Rex is a game that will keep you on the edge of your seat and coming back for more.
