Today’s best board game early Black Friday deal
On its box, Flip 7 calls itself “The greatest card game of all time,” and I’m inclined to agree.
The gameplay is super easy to understand, making it a great one to play with folks of all ages. Everyone is dealt a card, and then on their turn, each player can choose to stick or twist. It sounds a lot like Blackjack, but the difference here is that you aren’t aiming for a score of 21. Instead, you don’t want to flip over a number you have already been dealt.
At the end of the round, the players who didn’t bust add up the value of their cards in a race to be the first to reach 200 points. So you’re after those bigger value cards, but because each deck is made up of twelve 12s, eleven 11s, ten 10s, and so on, they’re a double-edged sword. They’ll help you rack up points quickly, but are also more likely to cause your round to end early.
There are also a handful of action cards that allow you to score bonus points or freeze your foes, and there’s the Flip 7 of it all – if you flip over seven unique number cards in a round, it ends immediately and you score a bonus 15 points on top of what you’d have earned.
I played this at a friend’s home a few months ago and instantly went out to buy a copy, and I’ve even gifted copies to a few friends – that’s how much I love this game.
Sounds Fishy is also a lot of fun for groups, and it’s another one of the titles I’ll be recommending in my next annual roundup. It’s another party game, but instead asks players to come up with fake answers to questions to trick the other people at the table.
It’s another really fun and easy game to learn, and I feel it pairs very nicely with Flip 7, but there are some other great options among Target’s sale items, including other Big Potato Games titles, including Tilt and Shout and Herd Mentality.
