Hand slapping can be too much for some kids Number of Players: 2-5 | Duration: 20 minutes | Recommended Age: 8 years and up For a hard version of the game, all players could choose not to reveal the selected cards and leave everybody guessing until the end. It's an easy game of strategy, and the instructions have several variations you could play with. You score your cards (with multipliers and specialty cards applied!) and play two more rounds.
You keep picking and passing until there are no cards left in your hand, and all are in front of you on the table. Players start with a selection of cards in their hands, choose one they want to keep, which all players reveal at once, and then pass the rest of the unchosen cards. The way it works is that each card has a value, sometimes on its own and sometimes only when you get multiples of that card. It's not loud or raucous, so it's a great option for killing time as a family when waiting at the airport or even in a doctor's office. Sushi Go! is a great portable card game that can be started and finished within 20 minutes.
