If you and your family/friends are fans of word games then a new project on Kickstarter may be worth a look. In Qquip players actually play two hands of cards, one hidden in their hand and the other face up on the table. The players then strive to complete phrases using the cards available to them. Currently you can be an early bird supporter and receive the game for a cool five bucks.
About Qquip:
Qquip is a new social card game that is geared around players to complete a single funny, or wacky word phrase by using a collective of single words to complete the phrase before the other players build the phrase. This may sound simple but a lot of twist and nerves take place between players. The first key difference with Qquip is players have two hands they must protect from other players at all times.
Each player has two hands to play. One hand is held in the player’s physical hand and the other one is placed on the table facing up so that all players can see the word(s) displayed to build the Qquip phrase. If a player has the word(s) that match the Qquip phrase card that was selected, that player can choose to lay those corresponding cards down on the table or to keep these cards in his or her hand and decide when it’s the right time to play cards or complete the phrase. Timing is of utmost importance for game success.
Players must decide when to display cards that match the Qquip phrase and when to protect these cards by keeping them in their hand. However, there must always be a total of five cards in the player’s hand, not including the cards displayed on the table. The “Qquip Unicorn” action card can be used as a substitute for a missing word or words a player does not have, in order to complete a Qquip phrase.
