Card Games

.

A party game when it pays to think like everyone else, like the herd.

There is a simple question on each card.  You have to guess how the majority of people would answer it.  If you are right, you win cows.  However if you are in a minority of one, hard luck.  You get the dreaded pink cow and your cows are worthless.

A variation of the classic Uno in which you place a Liar's card face down and then say what it is but are you lying or telling the truth?

A speedy, Sh..head-like game, card game where you must lose your cards as quick as you can.  If you are last, you get to wear the delightful scratch and sniff sticker.

Like Flip 7 but with nastier action cards.  Does that make it greater than @The Greatest Card Game of All Time' as the normal Flip 7 claims to be?

108 cards, as opposed to 94.

Flip 7 claims to be the 'Greatest Card Game of All Time'.  Who am I to argue.

It doesn't have too many rules, so it's quick to learn.  It's fast and it's fun and those clever clogs who like to work out the odds of each card appearing don't always win.  Lady Luck plays a big part.

So there is a pack of 94 cards: twelve twelves, eleven elevens, ten tens etc plus a few special cards which may bump up your score, knock you out of that round or save you from being knocked out.

Everyone is dealt one card. Then the dealer goes round and asks each person if they would like to flip another card.  If yes, the top card of the pack is flipped over.  If that card's number matches another card in the player's hand then they're out of that round with zero points.  If it doesn't, that's great, they get to score points.  If the player chooses not to flip, they get to bank their points. The question is how far do you push your luck?  Do you carry on flipping and risk losing your points or do you play safe and bank?  First player to get to 200 points wins.
