Flip 7

Players flip cards one at a time into a shared display, trying not to reveal the same number twice in a round. The deck contains a limited distribution of numbered cards (one 1, two 2s, three 3s, etc.) plus special cards that modify scoring, grant extra flips, or impede opponents. On a turn, players decide whether to keep the points currently shown in front of them or flip another card and risk busting their run; collecting a sequence of seven distinct numbers yields extra points. The game combines press-your-luck decisions with tactical choices about when to bank points and when to push for bonuses.

    Better uno??? Guess that’s subjective. Has elements of poker, card types makes it a fun experience. Gambling mindset…

    Creo que odio los juegos donde la mecánica de push your luck es la parte principal (e incluso única). Sé que puedes hacer comprobaciones estadísticas para saber si deberías robar o no. No obstante, el juego puede estar en tu contra por completo y no robar ni cartas especiales, ni números distintos a los que ya tienes... Además, si has tenido la mala suerte de quedarte atrás, no tienes otra qué jugártela y (de probablemente) sentir la frustración de volver a sacar una carta que te saca de la ronda. Bastante tedioso y unidimensional, no lo puedo recomendar :/

Rules questions

Answered from the rulebook by Ludoya's rules assistant.

Do the seven cards for the Flip 7 bonus have to be different numbers or just any seven cards?

You must have seven unique Number cards face up to trigger the Flip 7 bonus; Action and Modifier cards do not count toward the seven cards (pp. 2, 6).

If I flip a duplicate number, what happens—do I just lose the bonus or is there more?

If you ever draw a second card with the same number as one already in your line you bust, are out of the round, and score nothing for that round (p. 2).

What exactly does a Freeze card do when played on me?

The player who receives a FREEZE! card immediately banks the points they have collected and is out of the round (p. 7).

If I get a Flip Three, do I have to accept action/modifier cards too, and what if I bust during the three?

With FLIP THREE you must accept the next three cards one at a time and those can be Number, Action, or Modifier cards; stop early if you achieve Flip 7 or if you bust, and any additional Flip Three or Freeze cards revealed are resolved only after the three cards are drawn (p. 7–8).

How does a Second Chance card work—can it save me from a duplicate?

Keep a SECOND CHANCE card to discard itself and the duplicate Number card if you later receive a duplicate; you may only have one, you must pass an extra Second Chance to another active player (or discard it if none), and all Second Chance cards are discarded at round end (p. 8).

How do modifiers like x2 and +4 apply—what's the scoring order?

First add the values of your Number cards, then apply the x2 multiplier (if any), then add any +2/+4/.../+10 modifiers and other bonuses (including the +15 Flip 7 bonus) to get your round score (pp. 9, 11).
