Lucky Undies

Dossier

Lucky Undies is the family card game where strategy, sabotage, and dirty undies collide! Lucky Undies is a fast-paced shedding card game for 2–5 players where everyone races to get rid of all their cards first. To play, each player is dealt 21 cards (using one deck for 2 players or both decks shuffled together for 3–5). Without looking, everyone sets out 4 face-down Undies in a row, creates a Personal Draw Pile of 10 cards, and looks at the remaining 7 cards in hand. Players then choose 4 of those hand cards to become their Covers, which sit face-up on top of the Undies. This leaves everyone with exactly 3 cards in hand to start. On your turn you must play one or more matching cards from your hand that equal or beat the top card on the central Discard Pile. If you can’t play, you pick up the entire Discard Pile and add it to your hand (beginners can optionally take just the top 4 cards), then immediately play any card to start a new pile. After playing, you always draw from your Personal Draw Pile until you have 3 cards in hand again. Once your hand and draw pile are both empty, you start playing your Covers, and finally flip your hidden Undies one at a time, hoping they’re lucky enough to match or beat the current top card. Four powerful Wild cards add the perfect dose of mischief and strategy: RESET lets the next player play anything while keeping the pile in play, CLEAR removes the entire Discard Pile so the next player can play freely, BRING A FRIEND adds an extra card of any value, and ATTACK forces another player to take the whole pile (they can defend with their own Attack or a Clear). If four or more identical cards are played in a row, the Discard Pile is removed from the game entirely. The first player to shed every last card; hand, draw pile, Covers, and all their Undies, is crowned the Lucky Undies Champion! —description from the publisher
