A Revolution in Bridge! aBRIDGEd is a streamlined version of the classic Bridge card game. This engaging and easy-to-learn game [20 minutes to learn] plays just like Bridge — but w ithout the complex bidding. Two decks are included; each with colored cards numbered 2-14. Teams are chosen and 13 cards dealt to each player. Then each player declares Pass or Play; depending on whether they think their team can win at least 10 of the tricks. If a player says Play in Round 1; they are the dummy. They lay all their cards down and declare which color will be trump (or no-trump). Each player then declares their hand's pip strength (small dots on some cards) and color count (largest quantity of one color in their hand). Starting on the dummy's left; cards are played. You must follow suit if you can; highest card of the 4 wins. [Note: if no one calls play in Round 1; players will bid on how many tricks their team can win.] After 13 tricks; one team scores points as indicated on a chart. If the declaring team fails to make their bid; the opposing team scores. Play ends after four rounds. Show more
