Tricky Traps

Scoring points in Tricky Traps happens in no time. Holding onto them, now that's the real challenge. You play over three rounds, and each round you draft nine cards, three at a time. Then you play them out in tricks, where the highest card wins. But winning a trick is only the start. All the cards you win go into your own scoring zone, neatly sorted by trap type. Here's the twist: only your lowest cards score points, and runs that link together cancel each other out. Every trick becomes a balancing act. Do you grab it, or let it slip away? You'll gather a big pile of points along the way. Whether you still have them all at the end is another story entirely. A game for 2 to 5 players aged 10 and up, playable in about half an hour.
