Paardenkoppen

3–6 players · 30 min · 10+

In Paardenkoppen, each round you receive a number of playing cards and, if you're lucky, one or more face cards (horse 13, cow 12, pig 11, and goat 10). You place chips on the different rows of animals.

If you have a face card, you try to play it during the round. If you succeed, you win the chips associated with that row of animals. Don’t have a face card? Then try to prevent face cards from being played that round, so the chips remain and you can win them in a later round.

Make sure you win the highest value of chips! Win the most chips and become a true Paardenkop!
