About this item

Outsmart your opponents in a clever, fast-moving trick-taking game where winning cards isn't just about taking tricks—it's about passing hands and controlling the flow of the game. Pass Pass (published by Randolph / Hachette Boardgames) is a lively trick-taking card game that puts a unique twist on classic card play mechanisms. Moving away from standard point-salting or simple high-card trick captures, this title introduces a dynamic card-passing mechanic that constantly shifts hand management strategies. The primary mechanical hurdle stems from navigating the dual objective of winning high-value tricks while managing hand composition—playing your highest card might win the current trick, but it could leave you vulnerable in subsequent rounds or force you to pass a powerful card to an opponent. Designed for 3 to 6 players aged 8 and up, a typical session plays out in a fast-paced 20 minutes. To master the game, players must anticipate their opponents' moves, carefully time when to take tricks, and use card-passing phases to disrupt rival hands. Victory goes to the player who balances short-term trick wins with long-term hand control.
