Jalape-NO!

In Jalape-NO! it is all about spicy peppers that you would do well to avoid. It is a trick-taking game in which you actually do not want to score. Whoever has the fewest points at the end wins. Each round you deal out twelve cards, and every pepper you end up with goes face up in front of you on the table. From that moment on the feeling out begins: which colour do you play, and how do you dodge those annoying peppers? You follow the colour that is led if you can. The highest card wins the trick, and the winner leads the next trick. Sounds easy, but it is exactly those high cards that often land you a pepper you would rather not have had. Every pepper counts for two penalty points, and every card in the same colour as a pepper adds one more. So you keep calculating, hesitating and hoping that your neighbour picks up the hot potato. After five rounds you tally everything up. Jalape-NO! is a game for large groups, with room for as many as nine players. Perfect for an evening at the table with friends or family, full of laughter, surprises and that one moment when someone ends up with that pepper after all.
