Everyone plays a number at once, and whoever lands at the back feeds the shark.
Who it's for
A table of five or six that likes light bluffing, a bit of cruelty and a game that finishes before anyone gets bored.
Not for you if…
You dislike elimination games or want more than a quick guessing game. Two players works but loses the crowd chaos.
Vibe's take
Quick, bluffy and a little cruel, with a lot of shouting at tied cards. The simultaneous reveal turns every round into a small guessing game about your neighbors.
Get Bit! is a card game about being slightly less edible than your friends. Everyone picks a number card and reveals it at the same time. Highest card goes to the front of the line, lowest to the back, and ties stay put, which is where the fun starts. Whoever ends up last in line loses a limb to the shark and is flung to the front. Repeat until just two swimmers are left, and the one up front wins. It plays in about twenty minutes with two to seven players, and the game's whole charm is guessing what your neighbors will play.
