Bayou Boss is a sly trick-taking card game where winning too many tricks can send you straight to the bottom of the swamp.

Instead of trying to collect the most tricks, players are aiming to finish with the fewest. Each round gives you chances to push tricks onto other players, grab useful face-up cards from the middle of the table, and use local bayou characters to shift the game in your favour.

Easy to learn but full of clever choices, Bayou Boss is a fun twist on traditional trick-taking games for families, groups and card game fans. Every hand plays differently as players balance timing, risk and sneaky card play to avoid ending up with the biggest trick pile.

• A trick-taking card game where the player with the fewest tricks wins.
