Who would love this: Kids/ adults that enjoy quick number games with a hint of strategy
“3Up 3Down” from ok2win is that sort of game where you can sit back, relax, whilst satisfying that inner competitiveness for a fun match. It’s fast-paced, family-friendly, and can be enjoyed by all ages. Thank you Divisible by Zero for providing a copy!
Why I love ❤️ it:
(1) Card Game With Good Mix Of Luck + Strategy
We love card games with a good mix of luck and strategy. The set comes with 84 cards and an instruction sheet. To set up, shuffle the deck and deal 3 cards face-down to each player. Next, deal a further 6 cards, where the player will now select 3 to be placed face-up, and take the remaining 3 cards in hands. On a turn, each player will play a card which is either equal or in greater value than the topmost card (player can play more than a card of a same value). Player must always fill their hands to have at least 3 cards at all times. If you cannot beat the topmost number, you must pick up all the cards underneath it (the “discard pile”) and add them to your hands, unless you play a “Clear” card (which has the power to get rid of the entire discard pile and remove it from the game). When your hand is empty, you can begin to play on the 3 face-up cards, and lastly, the 3 face-down cards in front of you. Be the first to get rid of all cards to win!
(2) Sufficient "Clear" Cards To Avoid Too Many Frustrating Penalties
Just like UNO, no one loves the penalty of picking up the discard pile! But luckily, there are sufficient “Clear” cards around to avoid that nasty pickle. The discard pile can also be cleared away when a same number is played 3 times consecutively (whether by one player or more).
(3) "Suspense" Till The End
The “3 Up” and “3 Down” setting is the feature that really sets this game apart from most other card-shedding games. I love the suspense and “calculative” tactics involved that keep all players guessing (and peeking) till the end. I love the strategy behind selecting a good set of “Up” cards (cards with higher value, “clear” power, or repeated numbers are some great choices), mixing with the randomness of the “Down” cards for some final surprise.
(4) Travel-Friendly & Compact Game
The game is compact and travel-friendly. The cards are thick, and come in three bright and vivid colours. I love the basic and uncluttered design of the cards. This is a lovely family game!
