Description:
Trickarus is a must-follow trick-taking card game themed around Icarus and friends flying too close to the sun, where winning tricks pushes you higher into the sky but flying too high risks disaster—so players must strategically shift between wanting to win and wanting to lose tricks. The game's standout twist is its day/night flipping mechanic: playing a "5" card flips day to night (or vice versa), rotating the cards and swapping which values count as high or low, so opponents can manipulate you into flying too high to win. A stylish Japanese import now brought to the U.S., it offers quick, clever, strategic gameplay built around this unusual push-your-luck trick-taking twist.
