Tricky!: Fantasy Feud

Tricky! is a chaotic, unpredictable trick-taking game that asks you to predict it anyway. The game is compatible for 2 to 5 players. Each player plays cards to win tricks against the others over multiple rounds. Players score points by winning tricks (or turns), correctly betting how many tricks they will win per round, and successfully executing certain abilities. The game lasts, at a minimum, long enough for each player to be dealer. For longer games, each player may be dealer multiple times. After the final round, the player with the most accumulated points is the winner. The game is composed of 46 game cards. These cards are divided into three suits: HUMAN, DWARF, and DARK ELF, and one wildcard. Each suit is made up of fifteen different cards, each card having a distinct value, indicated by both the number in the top left and bottom right corners of the card. A card’s value is akin to its strength or power. If two cards share the same suit, the card with a higher value will beat the card with a lower value, thus winning the trick (or turn). Each round consists of a series of 7 turns for each player, called tricks. Every trick, each player will play one card from their hand face up into the middle. One player will lead (that is, play the first card of the trick), and the others will follow in clockwise order. Based on the cards played, one player will be said to win the trick. —description from the publisher
