Standoff! Is a fast paced dueling card game where two or more players duke it out by pitting fighters armed with deadly weapons against each other in a bid for power. You’ll have to think quick, bluff, bait, and make the most of the arsenal you’re dealt if you want to make it out of this standoff on top.
Ideal for 4 players, Standoff! can be played with as few as 2 people or as many as 16! With 4 players you'll go through every card in both decks. With 16 you're going to be doing a lot of shuffling.
This edition of Standoff! is set is the old west, where lawmen, outlaws, cowboys, and duelists lived or died by the speed of their gun hand...or by how dirty they where willing to fight!
Each game comes with two decks of 48 cards and a folded rule sheet (hint: use the rule sheet to keep the two decks separate). One deck contains fighters, your representative in the duel. The other contains weapons that your fighter has hidden until the very last minute. Each fighter and weapon card has a color and a point value. Weapon cards also have a multiplier value, either x2 or x3, that is applied when your played cards match in color (a four color card is a wild card and its multiplier will always be in effect).
In Standoff!, everyone plays at the same time instead of taking turns. Each hand is a round of three sets and a complete game consists of four rounds.
