Linko

Lay down sets of numbers and knock your neighbours' cards off the table before they do it to you.

Play sets of matching numbers from your hand, but play them too low and the next player takes them right off the table. Stolen cards score if you can get rid of them again and cost you if they stay in your hand at the end.

Every play can be overwritten by a stronger oneCards left in hand cost you pointsTwenty minutes with room for five players

Who it's for

Card players who like reading the table and enjoy a bit of needling. Shines at four players, where the sets come around fast.

Not for you if…

Direct attacks bother you, or you want a game where your plan survives your own turn. At two players a lot of the deduction disappears and it turns into a fairly dry duel.

Vibe's take

Gleefully mean in short bursts. You watch the table constantly, weighing whether a set will hold or hand someone a free steal.
