About this game

A partnership trick-taking game from Asia where you can call Tichu β€” a bold declaration that you'll play out your hand first β€” for bonus points and glorious risk. The combination of card passing, special cards, and team communication creates a game that improves with every session. The best trick-taking game for exactly four players.
