Chasing Shadows
In a secret underworld of espionage, agents avoid exposure while operating in the shadows. Players draft the suit they must follow from a dwindling pool of cards, limiting the next player’s options and forcing them to win tricks. Taking cards and scoring points is bad, but certain cards can make previous points disappear. After three rounds, the player with the lowest score wins.
