Voodoo Prince

Trick-taking game where players try to take the necessary tricks as late as possible. Waiting too long can leave you with nothing, so every card must manage the timing of success rather than simply winning as many tricks as you can.

How it plays

How does it play?

Voodoo Prince is not about making as many or as few tricks as possible or about making a precise number of tricks, but rather about taking the necessary tricks as late as possible. If you wait too long, however, then you might end up with no points in the end.
