About this game

Gudetama: The Tricky Egg Card Game is a trick-taking game for 2-7 players in which the goal is to avoid winning the final trick! Take as many cards as you want, but don't get scrambled on the last card! The player who wins the final trick scores points equal to their card that won the trick — and you do not want points. The game is played over the course of several rounds, where each round consists of seven tricks. —description from the publisher This game is similar to the traditional card game Cucumber.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 7.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 7 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
