Overview
Flip 7 is a "push your luck" game a little like blackjack, but with exciting modifiers and actions to take against other players. The goal is to reach 200 points by taking cards (each card is worth its value), but if you get any duplicates, you bust and are out of the round. If you can successfully flip 7 (gain seven different number cards), you score 15 bonus points and end the round.
The Deck
The deck consists of 94 cards.
Number Cards
Most cards are number cards with values of 0 - 12. Twelve are 12 cards, eleven are 11 cards, ten are 10 cards, and so on down to one 1 card. There is also one 0 card. Note that the more valuable a card is, the more copies of it there are in the deck.
Action Cards
The deck contains three types of action cards. The player who draws an action card must choose a player (including themselves) to give it to.
- Freeze: Force a player to stay. They still score with their current cards.
- Flip Three: Force a player to draw three cards. If the chosen player draws a duplicate, they bust and don't draw any more. If the chosen player draws an action card, it is resolved after all three have been drawn.
- Second chance: A player who receives this gets to avoid busting once. The duplicate card and the Second Chance card are both discarded, and the player's turn continues. A player may hold only one Second Chance card. If another is drawn, it must be given to another player.
Modifier Cards
These cards add to your total score, but do not count towards a Flip 7 or a bust. The deck contains one each of +2, +4, +6, +8, +10, and a multiplier card x2
Gameplay
At the start of a round, each player is dealt one card. Then, in turn order, each player decides whether to hit (take a card) or stay (take no more cards and bank your points, which is the total of the value of the cards in front of you).
If you hit, and that new card is a duplicate of one of your other number cards (not modifier cards), you have busted. This means you are out of the round and score zero points.
The round ends when everyone has chosen to stay or has busted.
If you manage to flip 7 unique number cards in a round, the round automatically ends. Each player who has not busted gains the points in front of them, and you gain 15 bonus points.
Game End
When at least one player reaches 200 points, the game ends and the player with the most points wins.
