About the game

What you do in a play session

Get your hot cocoa ready and gather the crew, because Flip 7: The 12 Days of Flipmas is here to bring that festive chaos we all love! If you already know the original Flip 7, you know the premise is simple yet addictive: the goal is to flip 7 cards with different numbers without hitting a duplicate. If you flip a card that’s already on the table, boom! Your turn ends and you walk away empty-handed. It’s that classic 'push your luck' tension that makes the whole table hold their breath with every single card revealed.

In this special holiday edition, the dynamics get a festive boost with thematic cards that can be your salvation or your opponents' downfall. We’ve got cards like 'Gift Wrap,' which protects your plays, and 'Gift Exchange,' which lets you swap that pesky zero for a number you actually need. It’s the kind of game that scales incredibly well, supporting 3 to 15 players, making it the perfect choice for that family gathering where nobody wants to spend time reading massive rulebooks.

The experience is fast, loud, and full of banter. Since rounds last about 20 minutes, it’s very easy to fall into the 'just one more' trap and end up playing all night long. The game balances calculated risk with pure luck, and the new gift cards add a strategic layer that keeps things fresh. It’s a fantastic filler to keep in your bag, whether it’s for a Christmas lunch or any other occasion where you need a game that everyone understands in two minutes and enjoys immediately. If you like games that generate laughs, a little bit of friendly jealousy, and plenty of adrenaline, this Flipmas version is a must-have for your collection, working perfectly as a great gift for that board gamer friend or as the main attraction for your next group game night.
