Pickle, an elimination style card game. A great alternative to poker night with friends and an extremely social game for up to 18.
Pickle is an elimination style card game in which the player or players with the highest card at the end of each hand is given points (or surrenders chips). Each player that reaches 36 points (or loses all their chips) is eliminated. The last player in the game is the winner. Each player must “overtake” the highest play of the hand or play their lowest card. Each hand is dealt, an exchange of cards may be offered, then the hand is played.
You know it is a GREAT card game when the card or cards you lay can frustrate the person to the left or right of you. I love how you can change your strategy and completely change the focus of the game. An awesome late night game with friends that always ends with waking someone up with roars of laughter. If you're a vengeful card player this game is for you.-David D. (Iowa City, IA)
The Pickle Card Game has been a wonderful game to play when we have friends over! We can play it all night long! Nice alternative to Poker! My friends are now asking me where to purchase the game.-Tommy L. (Chicago, IL)
