Suspense: the Card Game
Suspense: the Card Game
SUSPENSE: THE CARD GAME is a frighteningly fast game of deduction and bluffing. It's a tiny game for big brains. You'll be shocked at how much fun you can get from thirteen little cards.
Each player is dealt a hand of four cards, leaving the last card face-down in the middle of the table. This is the secret victory condition of the round. Sometimes you want the lowest number in play, sometimes you want the highest number in hand... there are thirteen unique victory conditions possible, all based on highest or lowest number, either in play or in hand, and sometimes specifying black or white numbers.
Fortunately, you have some clues in your hand to help your process of elimination. Your hand of cards lets you deduce that these will *not* be the victory condition for the round. Your goal is to deduce a victory condition while also trying to meet it. And time is tight! You only have a few turns in each round to figure it out.
There is one more brain-burning twist: If you're the dealer, you know the secret victory condition! The other players will closely watch your choices for clues! You could try throwing false leads to get the other players on the wrong trail. You'll have to be really clever to keep everyone in... SUSPENSE!
