Pig 10 (2010)

About this game

From the box backside: Shout it out, count it out – be lucky as a pig in clover! Pig 10 is a card game that lets you go hog wild. ­Everything revolves about the number 10. The player who hits 10 with his piglet cards fabulously often, wins. From the rules introduction: NINE is nothing special. But TEN is awesome. From ELEVEN on, however, it‘s getting really crummy… Whenever you are able to play a card that turns the result in the middle of the table into TEN, all laid-out cards are yours… but it must not be even a tiny bit more – otherwise, only the rascal who had his turn before you gets the pleasure of it.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 8.
• Rules load. At 1.3/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
