This summer will see the release of a new trick taking card game, inspired by the melancholic cartoon egg Gudetama of Sanrio fame, from Oni Games and Renegade Game Studios. Gudetama: The Tricky Egg Card Game will focus on players aiming to not end up with any points – as opposed to gaining points – after each trick. The game is for two to seven players, ages 7+, plays in around 20 minutes, and will carry an MSRP of $15.00 when it arrives in August.
From Renegade:
Channel your inner lazy egg in this over-easy trick-taking game!
Take as many cards as you want, but don’t get scrambled on the last card!
Gudetama: The Tricky Egg Card Game is a trick-taking game for 2-7 players where the goal is to avoid winning the final trick! The player who wins the final trick will score points equal to their card that won the trick (you do not want points). The game is played over the course of several rounds, where each round consists of 7 tricks.
