Bandit

Outsmart, bluff, and strike fast. Players use memory, reflexes, and nerve to lower their scores. Each player has four hidden cards but knows only two of them. On a turn, players draw from the deck or discard pile, then use card powers, swap cards, or discard. Matching cards can be discarded immediately, but failed attempts add penalty cards. Players can end the round when they think they have the lowest score, risking a penalty for calling too early. The player with the lowest total score wins.
