Review: Fun game - We love this game. We played this game at my mom's and came home and ordered it immediately. What we like is that it is a fairly quick game to learn and play. It is not just a game of luck, but thought and strategy, as well. Some of the people we played with thought that it was too confusing having different numbers on the bottom of the card as were on the top of the card. But as you will see if you buy this game, that is all part of the strategy. Decidint whether or not to use the top number s or flip your hand and play with the bottom numbers.

## Features

- Fast paced strategic card game where players build powerful number runs and sets while locked into their original hand order, creating tense turns and clever decisions in every 20 minute round.
- Innovative scout or show system lets you either add a card from the table to improve your hand or reveal your best combination to score, giving every turn meaningful choices and strong replay value.
- Compact small box design and minimal components make Scout an ideal travel game that fits easily in a bag or pocket, ready for family game night, cafes, conventions, or nights away from home.
- Designed for 2-5 players ages 9 and up, Scout scales smoothly from quick duels to full table sessions, working well for casual gamers, seasoned hobby groups, and mixed age gatherings.
- Clean graphic style and simple rules support fast teaching while the award nominated design delivers surprising depth, rewarding timing, risk management, and reading your opponents.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Short teach, accessible, but not boring
*by R***I on December 13, 2025*

Played this first with some friends when I needed not to spend half an hour thinking hard about learning rules. Enjoyed it so bought our own. It's similar enough to Gin Rummy that it's easy to explain and learn, it has one gimmick to make it different, it doesn't get boring quickly, the way the game plays out doesn't seem too lopsided, and I kinda like the colorful design. Small enough to take down the pub.
