Yedi
For 2 or more players. More is better
 
  • Pure strategic choice! Everybody gets the same cards
  • Tactical! Choose the order of your turn
  • A slice of luck! Pick from the deck
 
Contents
 
  • 7 Yedi cards per player (here I have played with 4 players)
  • A ‘Chance’ deck
  • Gems
 
As you see, this game is cheap to produce so please try to get past my design skills to see a game which is both quick and challenging, offering the more experienced play a slight advantage whilst still giving the players who maybe new to the game every opportunity to turn the tide.

 
 
Each player gets the same 7 cards. 
Picture
And a Turn card to keep track of their turns. For example
 
  • Player can Put, Play or Pick. Chooses to Play.
  • Next turn can either Put or Pick.
  • Chooses to Put.
  • Next turn must Pick
Picture
  1. Put. That player chooses/ is forced to equal, put in, the stake put in from The Bank
  2. Play. That player chooses/ is forced to play a card
  3. Pick. That play chooses/ is forced to pick a Deck card
​Like all great commercial games Yedi is incredibly easy to learn.
Each player gets the same instruction cards and 20 Gems. The Bank then puts a number of Gems in the pot. This is the Pot. The last player in in that round wins the Pot. And as with the best games, the winner is the last player in


​The Deck cards
 
To throw in a spanner of best laid plans are the Deck cards. These are either Good or Bad and included cards pertaining to The Bank. No picking on someone!


'West' has won this round by being the last player with any cards in this round and tskes either of the two Pots. (The gems in the dish are The Bank).
Picture
​Deck cards should be played against a players opponent fairly, where possible, but the player at the bottom of the picture and the eventual winner were the only two left so they played their cards against each other. And even though the player on the left hand of the picture had many more cards against them they played a better game and won.
 
A round lasts around 10 minutes with the cards taking play back and forth amongst the players to make an addictive experience people will want to play again and again to win all those precious gems
