Splitrick

From BoardGameGeek:

In Splitrick, you're surrounded by adorable but mischievous cats. Each one looks sweet, but hide a mean streak: some will give you points, others will scratch you with penalties. To survive, you'll have to split your hand and tread carefully: play too eagerly and you'll fall into their trap. Play too cautiously and you'll miss your chance. Only those who can sniff out the tricks and stay one paw ahead will come out unscathed. Splitrick is a must-follow trick-taking game without trumps. At the start of each round, players choose to split their hand into two parts or play normally, gaining bonus points for no-split choices. As tricks unfold, specific cards or outcomes may trigger significant point losses from randomly drawn minus cards. The game ends after three rounds.
