Castle is a card game designed by Bruno Faidutti and Serge Laget. Each player begins the game with a hand of cards and their own personal deck of cards from which they draw new ones (the number of cards in hand and deck depend upon the number of players in the game). It is a shedding card game, i.e. the winning player is the one who disposes of all of their cards (in hand and personal deck) first.
Setup:
It is a card game played with 2-5 players. Deal cards 3 at a time, the first set of three being placed face-down. These cards cannot been seen until the end of the game. Players will then have 6 cards to pick up. Players choose the best 3 cards to place on top of their face down castle. These 6 cards become your entire castle. Players take turns playing their cards in an increasing order, if you cannot beat the previous card you must pick up the entire pile. Four of a kind clears the pile, as well as a 10. 2's allow you to go again, and 9's reverse the order.
Castle won the 2000 Concours International de Créateurs de Jeux de Société.
