About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for a wild race with Qwitch! This card game is pure adrenaline, where the goal is to get rid of all your cards as quickly as possible. Each card features a number and a letter, and you have to play them onto a central pile following a rule dictated by a direction card: it could be one number or letter higher (+), one lower (-), or the same (=). The twist is that everyone plays at the same time, no waiting for turns! It's a fun chaos where quick thinking and reflexes are key. When someone empties their hand, play pauses, everyone draws more cards (up to five), and the race restarts with a new direction. Whoever empties both their hand and deck first wins! If the frenzy isn't your style, Qwitch can also be played turn-based, making it accessible for younger players or those who prefer a calmer pace. It's a fast-paced, easy-to-learn game perfect for livening up any gathering, whether with the whole crew or just one friend.
