RULES:
The object of the game is to move the tacocat to the goal space on your side of the board by having the lowest card at the end of each round. Unfold the board, longways, between the 2 players. Put the 7 tiles in a stack next to the board. Place the tacocat on the center place. Shuffle the cards and deal cards to each player based on the number on the space that tacocat is standing on. Players look at their own cards but keep them hidden from their opponents. Put the rest of the cards face down on the table to form a draw deck.
At the start of each round, look at the arrow on the board that tacocat is standing on. Whichever player the arrow points at, that player can discard any number of cards from their hand. Discarded cards are always placed face up to a central discard pile. You can choose to not discard any if you want. That player now draws the same number of discarded cards from the draw deck. Then their opponent may discard up to that same number of cards from their hand and draw new ones if they want. For the first round of the game, both players simultaneously discard as many cards as they want. They may only discard cards one time.
To determine who goes first, the players dual by each selecting a card from their hand and places it face down on the table. Both players reveal their card at the same time and the player with the highest number goes first and both cards are discarded. If it is a tie, then discard the cards and dual again. If you dual all the way to a final card, then both players flip over their final card and the player with the lowest number wins the round.
Otherwise, on your turn, you attack. To attack, place any card from your hand face up in front of you. Your opponent must now either defend or sacrifice. To defend, they must play a card from their hand that is equal to or higher in value, thus winning the fight. To sacrifice, they must place down their absolute lowest card in their hand, thus losing the fight. In either outcome, both cards are then discarded.
The player who won the fight gets to attack their opponent with any card from their hand. On your turn to attack, you may also play a jumbo attack. A jumbo attack is either: 2 or more cards of the same number, or 3 or more cards in sequential order. The defender must play a card from their hand for each card in a jumbo attack. The defender decides which of their cards defend which. If the defender sacrifices at least 1 card in the fight, then they lose the fight, and their opponent will get to attack again. You may not play your final card in a jumbo attack, and you do not have to play a jumbo attack if you don’t want to.
This process of attacking repeats until both players get down to their last card, then both cards are revealed simultaneously and the player with the lower card, wins the round. If the final cards are a tie, then the player with the arrow pointing at them wins the tie. If you tie the very first round of the game, then tacocat stays where it is, and a new round is played. Otherwise, move tacocat 1 space towards the winner of the round then cover up the space tacocat was just on with a tile. Tacocat skips over any space with a tile in it.
The first player to move tacocat to the closest space on their side of the board, wins!

Palindromes are fun! Also the rule about skipping spaces is great, keeps the game from running forever.

The funniest part about this game is that the gameplay has absolutely no connection to palindromes (beyond the play area being symmetric), it's just a palindrome-THEMED card game. Somebody made this game and then decided that the perfect wacky hilarious set-dressing would be... palindromes.

I was talking to an indie game designer at a convention (PAX Australia) and he said theming is everything. You have have the best mechanics in the world (and this clearly was workshopped as just a numbers game), but if you want to get a publisher interested and move some copies, having a theme that will grab people by the eyes is essential. Here, the bright colours and whimsical palindromes indeed have nothing to do with anything mechanically, but it'll sure make you more likely to pick up the box at a FLGS than "numbers duel".

What happens if you run out of cards in a duel
@messinberver4683
Жыл бұрын
You can't, because each player loses the same number of cards in each duel, so no matter what you will always have the same number of cards as your opponent. As in the video, a jumbo attack cannot use all remaining cards in your hand.

Can someone clarify about playing any card when you attack? The rules made it sound like you had to play your highest card...

Okay I found where it says you can attack with any card. The initial example in the rules sayining play your highest card makes this super confusing.
