Farm Hand

On the Farm Hand farm the animals are having a noisy contest: who can make the most racket? Farm Hand is a trick-taking game where you can see everyone's suit but not the values. Just enough information to get you into trouble.

Six asymmetric suits with values from 1 to 7 create a surprising puzzle: you know which suit your opponents hold, but not the number. Each round you first predict how many tricks you think you will win by holding up fingers. Nail your prediction exactly and you score points equal to the round number. Miss it and you lose a point per difference. Over six rounds your hand grows by one card, so the tension and the math keep building.

A tiny 21 card game that fits in any pocket, designed by Craig E. Somerton with colourful illustrations by Samuel Bouvant.
