CribbGolf (1988)

About this game

A new way to play Cribbage. Card play occurs as normal, however earned points are pegged on a board displaying an 18-hole golf course. This feature changes the strategy somewhat, as your final score is a golf score, not a cribbage score. Therefore, 1-point tricks that you would normally take without thinking in regular cribbage must be weighed carefully, as that one point may just put you in a sand trap or water hole on the golf course, costing you a stroke to your game.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 12 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
