Who it's for

Two players wanting a fast, hilarious reflex duel to squeeze in anywhere, anytime.

Not for you if…

You want strategy, depth, or more than two players; it is a pure speed game with a modest rating, thin on decisions and taxing for anyone who dislikes real-time pressure.

Vibe's take

Pure adrenaline; two minutes of frantic, simultaneous pattern-matching with no turns and no downtime.

About this game

A blistering two-player real-time card game, originally sold as Speed, that bills itself as the fastest game in the world. There are no turns: both players race at once to shed their whole hand by slapping down cards that match the color, shape, or number of symbols on either central pile. First to empty out wins in about two minutes.
