About the game

What you do in a play session

Remmi Demmi is a revamped version of a 1904 classic, Pit, bringing an extra dose of excitement to the table. The main goal remains the same: be the first to complete a set of cards through frantic trades with other players. But here's a twist! Each card has two distinct characteristics: color and the position of a figure. This means you can decide whether you want to collect a set of cards with the same color or with the same figure, adding a layer of strategy and flexibility to your trades. It's not just about shouting and trading; you have to think fast about what you really need!

Furthermore, each round has a variable duration, set by the dealer. They can opt for a shorter round if they feel they can complete their set quickly, or a longer one to give everyone more time. This real-time mechanic and the dealer's decision inject extra energy into the game, making each hand unpredictable and full of adrenaline. Whoever completes the first set (the famous 'Remmi') gets the highest score, while others may earn less or nothing, depending on their speed. It's a party game that tests your agility, perception, and negotiation skills at a fast pace!
