Great article on Trick Taking games
Trick-taking games have been around for a long time, but they’re hotter than ever. Andrew serves as your guide to the landscape for this Meeple Mountain expedition.
Meeple Mountain has a great article on trick taking games. I want to try Sail, as my wife and I love cooperative games.
That's a great selection of games.
Worth noting that there is an excellent 2-player variant for Yokai Septet. It started out as a fan variant but the designer liked it so much that it was adopted as official. I've been playing this a lot in the Trickster's Table app.
Crew's 2p variant works well too.
Good article, really great game suggestions. I particularly enjoyed Cat in the Box.
No mention of Euchre, which is also a wonderful trick-taking game that uses (some of) a standard deck
There are a whole lot of trick-taking games in traditional card space:
- the Hakka "Six Tigers" game
- several games of the related "Six Red" deck are trick-taking
- the Thai game จับหมู (Catch the Pig) which uses a western-style deck
- a bewildering variety of tarot games
- ... and a cast of thousands.
