Start for freeWhat to Expect
In 10-10, 3 to 4 players use a unique deck without suits, where each card has a major and minor rank. The combination of the first two cards played in each trick determines what cards subsequent players must follow: either matching the major or minor rank, or playing freely if no match. Players score points by winning tricks over several rounds equal to the number of players. The game lasts about 30 minutes.
Who Is This Game For?
10-10 targets experienced card players aged 13 and up who enjoy trick-taking games with a twist. It is a compact game for 3-4 players that offers quick rounds and accessible rules. Prior familiarity with trick-taking games helps but is not required.
How It Works
The core mechanic is trick-taking where the first two cards played dictate the following cards' required rank matches. If the major or minor ranks of the first two cards match, subsequent players must play cards matching that rank. Otherwise, players may play any card that doesn't share previously played ranks. Each trick won grants one point, and after a number of rounds equal to players, the highest scorer wins.
What Makes It Special
Designed by モリ (mor!) in 2019 for an exhibition challenging trick-taking definitions, 10-10 features a double-rank system without suits, setting it apart from traditional trick-taking card games. It innovates within the card game category by blending familiar mechanics in a new structure.
