What to Expect

In 13 Doctors, you play head-to-head against one opponent, trying to guess their secret character card before they guess yours. On your turn, you either play a card face-up to use its ability or face-down to make a guess about your opponent's character. The first to win three rounds wins the game. The quick pace and direct interaction create an intense, tactical experience.
