Bid your tricks, then cry to flip a card and change your hand.

A bidding trick-taker with double-sided cards: each card shows a different color and value on its other side, and losing a trick lets you rotate one to rebuild your hand mid-round.
Who it's for
Trick-taking regulars who want the familiar bidding structure bent by a genuinely unusual card twist.
Not for you if…
You want clean classic trick-taking, or find double-sided cards fiddly to hold and read.
Vibe's take
Cheeky and squirmy – losing a trick suddenly becomes a resource, and watching someone rescue a doomed bid by rotating one card is deeply satisfying.
