About the game
What you do in a play session
You know that game you start thinking is 'just a simple card game' and end up shouting with your friends? Well, Flip 8 is exactly that! The premise is simple: you flip cards one by one, trying to collect different numbers to score points. But watch out, the danger is right there: if you flip a number that has already appeared on the table, you bust and lose everything you've accumulated in that round. The tension rises as the numbers increase because the higher the number, the more copies exist in the deck, raising the risk of repeating a value and losing your hand.
But don't think it's just pure luck! The game has a great strategic twist with action cards that can change the course of the game. Want to mess with your neighbor? Use 'Hit 1' to force someone to flip a card even if they wanted to stop. Want to steal what someone else is building? There's a card for that too! There are block cards, stay cards, and ways to surprise your opponents. The goal is to reach 250 points, but the big prize lies in collecting eight different numbers to double your round score. It's a frenetic type of game, perfect for gathering the crowd, from kids still learning to count to players who love strategic chaos. Get ready for many twists and turns and that 'just one more card' feeling that always ends in disaster (or glory!).
