Description
Get ready to dive into the world of Origin of Falling Water, a clever card game designed by Takuya Saeki that's all about trick-taking with a twist. In this 30-minute game, 3 to 4 players compete to collect points, but here's the catch - you play the tricks in reverse order, starting from the sixth and working your way back to the first. This unique spin adds a layer of strategy to the classic trick-taking mechanism, as you need to think carefully about which cards to play and when. As you play, you'll also have the opportunity to use a special "thinking" card, which can be played in place of a regular card on any single trick. This adds an extra layer of depth to the game, as you need to decide when to use your thinking card to maximum effect. At the end of the game, your score is determined by the absolute value of the points you've collected, so you'll want to focus on collecting either positive or negative points, but not both. With its easy-to-learn rules and fast-paced gameplay, Origin of Falling Water is a great choice for anyone looking for a fun and challenging card game.
