Quickshot

This elimination card game has players secretly play cards, resolve effects, and lead after four hands or remain as the only player. Matching ranks cancel each other, so timing a strong card can backfire.

Read the full game description

Quickshot is a game for 1 to 7 players that takes places over a series of hands. In each hand, players are dealt five cards. One player plays a card face up, then others play one card each face down. After everyone has played, the cards are revealed and their effects are activated, but first, any cards of the same rank are turned face down again. The card effects may reverse the ranks, cause another player to discard a card, or cause certain players to be eliminated. After all effects are resolved, the person with the strongest card begins the next round by playing a card face up. The leader after the fourth round wins the game. The game ends earlier if only one player remains.
