Review: Fun game, easy to learn - I played this once at a weekend with friends (ages 20-30s) and immediately bought it when I returned home. I’m always looking for card games that work for my husband and I to play that do not require extensive setup. The game is easy to pick up and learn after a few rounds. It works well for two players too. Cards have stood up to plenty of shuffling without tearing so far. My only complaint is that I wish the 6 and 9s were easier to differentiate … they do have different backgrounds but it always takes me a minute to figure out!
Review: Cooperative card game that’s fun for 2 players or groups - This has quickly become one of my husband’s and my favorite games, and it’s always a hit at game nights. I even enjoyed playing it solo when he worked evenings! What makes it stand out is that it’s a cooperative card game — you’re working together instead of competing, which keeps things fun and lighthearted. The goal is to play number cards (2–99) onto four piles — two going up and two going down — without skipping too far ahead, all while relying on communication since you can’t say exact numbers. It’s quick to learn, plays in about 15–20 minutes, and is great for 2 players or groups. If you enjoy fast-paced, team-based games that are easy to pick up but still challenging, this one’s a winner.

## Features

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are there 100 individually numbered cards in the deck? As in 100 cards numbered 1 through 100?**
A: There is one card for each numbers 2-99. Two “1” cards and two “100” cards.

**Q: Is this just straight plagiarism of IDW’s product?**

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice easy game.
*by J***. on April 11, 2026*

My copy is unopened. I got this game because it is cheap. I love the game play of playing in order and pretty much everyone I play games with has a copy, so to round out the cart for same day shipping I ordered this on sale. It is a fun co-op game. Easy to learn and quick to play. I just never opened my copy.
