"Plot with the Square Queen, the King Let, the enchanter Roger Rob-It and the dragons Bert, Nerd and Bianca, to succeed and have control over the kingdom!" Chouineurs is a trick-taking game played in 4 rounds of 7 tricks in which there are colors, trump cards and supertrump cards! But more important, cards are two-sided, with one color and value on the upper side and others on the bottom side of the cards, and they may rotate! At the start of each round, you must choose the orientation of your hand of cards and bet on the number of tricks you think you can win during the round. If you win your bet, you will gain a lot of points. Otherwise, you can Cry, it helps a lot… The "Cry" mechanic is triggered when you play a card with the lowest value of the trick. By doing that, you can choose to just win a point for that round, or to rotate one car of your hand ! So it allows you to change your hand of cards and adapt it to win only the number of tricks you aim, the one you bet. At the end of the round, you will score 1 point for every time you Cry about your hand, and much more points if you manage to match your bet. At the end of the 4th round, the player with the most points wins the game. So... Ready? Steady? Crybaby! -description from the publisher
