## Description
If you thought the classic 'You're Bluffing!' was fun, get ready for the next level with Kuhhandel Master! This isn't just a new game, but a boosted, standalone version of the original. Forget the idea that it's just an expansion; here, you have a complete and much more robust game in your hands. The big news is the flexibility: you can now gather up to 6 players for an intense showdown, whereas the original was limited to 5. The livestock theme has gained extra layers of strategy and danger. We've introduced the dreaded Rat, an animal that can make your points vanish in the blink of an eye if you're not careful! Additionally, the new pedigree cards add a layer of bonuses for those who manage to build perfect cattle lineages, rewarding long-term planning. The auction system has also been refined, bringing new dynamics of closed economy and turn orders that will test your bluffing skills and ability to read opponents. It's a dynamic card game where simultaneous action selection keeps everyone engaged and no one is left waiting for their turn. If you enjoy fast-paced card games that require a sharp mind to calculate risks and manage resources, Kuhhandel Master is your next obsession.
