<p>Riouxmax: Added some more in-depth tips. The current ones were very high-level.</p> <hr /> <div>Strategy:<br /> <br /> - Pick one of the two victory conditions (5 ghosts or 3 amulet fragments) early in the game.<br /> <br /> - Winning with 3 amulet fragments is a much rarer occurence, and a vast majority of players focus on ghosts. <br /> <br /> - If you are pursuing the ghost path, prioritize high value cards first (especially 10's, 11's and 12's) as they have a high likelihood or providing at least 1 ghost per card.<br /> <br /> - Try to gain as many number 1 cards as you have high-value cards, to help flip them. <br /> <br /> - Being the first player to gain a flashlight to go to the park is a great advantage. <br /> <br /> - If you are pursuing the amulet path, manage the clock hands to take advantage of 6 and 12 positions.<br /> <br /> - Contest ghost pets, especially if you are pursuing the amulet path, as it prevents the other player from quickly reaching their needed 5.</div>

<p>Riouxmax: Rephrasing for clarity, getting rid of needlessly abbreviated words.</p> <hr /> <div>Slow and steady wins the FLIP!... <br /> <br /> There are 12 copies of the &quot;12&quot; card, 11 copies of the &quot;11&quot;, etc. There is only one &quot;1&quot; and one &quot;0&quot;, and therefore aren't possible to dupe. So if your hand mostly has low cards, you can risk going for more turns. The deck has a number on it showing remaining number of cards before a reshuffle. Remember the numbers that have been discarded / used, to know if you should take another card. <br /> <br /> Don't get too greedy. 3 cards is pretty good, especially if they are high numbers with lots of duplicates! Around 30 points per round is decent. 40+ is VERY good. <br /> <br /> IF the opponents have busted and you are the only one with points - take them, even if it's not much. Any advantage = take it!<br /> <br /> The FREEZE card - give that to the competitor with the highest total number of points. If someone already has 3 cards, they probably will end their turn or freeze themselves. There is likely no need to freeze them. Remember that if YOU are the only player left when you get a Freeze card, then YOU get frozen. <br /> <br /> The FLIP 3 card - If you have no cards, take it yourself. If someone else has 2 or 3 cards already, there is a good chance they will bust / duplicate, so give it to them. <br /> <br /> Often, decisions are made based on who is ahead of you in points. Penalize the leaders to stay in the race. <br /> <br /> If someone is about to win at the end of a round (i.e. they have 200+) - - note where you will fall in order. It is better to take 2nd place, than to risk trying to get 7 cards and bust (if you care about ELO's, that is). <br /> <br /> If you get the 2x card - be careful overplaying. It may be best to take the double points with 2 cards already, rather than risk losing it.</div>
