Lindyhop (2023)

About this game

In Lindyhop, a co-operative trick-taking game about swing dancing, players start by dealing out the music cards to create the song to which they will dance. Players then play tricks as dance moves to progress through the song, picking up points as they go. Some of the cards have powers, but these powers activate only on specific parts of the music — and you can't discuss what each player has in their hand. Try to beat your score each dance, but if you run out of dance cards before the music finishes, you score nothing! —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. No complexity score has been recorded for this one.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
