Tweedy Tricksters
is a four-player
trick-taking game.
Three cards are dealt to you,
you draft two more,
you choose the only suit you'll be allowed to lead during the round,
and only then discover who your partner is.
Because every card contains all four suits, you must keep possible future opportunities in mind when deciding which card to play now.
Tweedy Tricksters is a four-player card game that takes between 30-45 minutes to play. Recommended for those 8 years of age and older.
A challenging adventure you can bring to the table anytime!
Tweedy Tricksters is a four player trick-taking game, bridging the gap between traditional card games and modern tabletop gaming with simple, accessible game-play and a vast depth of strategic potential to explore. It addresses common issues players have with trick-taking games by trimming away the excesses of random chance and filling that void with meaningful choice every hand.
With beautifully hand-illustrated art by my mother and thoughtful graphic design by my father, the final product is a work of family. And thanks to some close pals who endured more complicated and much worse proto-versions to get here, it is a work of friendship. And with its many growths and evolutions over nearly a year and a half, it is a work of personal pride.
