PLAYED FOR YOU

Bad Bunnies

1 on 2, 2 on 2, 7 on 2 

Bad Bunnies is a card shedding game featuring 110 cards of value 1 to 13 in different numbers, there are 17 Ones and 17 Sevens, but, for instance, only four Eights and five Sixes and Nines.

All cards are shuffled and each player is dealt seven cards, the rest is draw pile for the next round. The active player discards a card and decides, if the next player must play a card of higher or lower value. You may, instead of following this demand, also at any time announce “Hoppel Doppel” instead and play the same number. In this case now each player must play the same number until one plays a Seven. There are special rules for One and Seven: Seven is a joker, can be played on any number and also stops the Doppel Hoppel / Doubling effect, with the Seven you announce higher or lower again. A Seven on a Seven does not constitute doubling, as the Seven can be played on any card. One is also a joker, can be played on any card and restarts, the game, you can play any card on a 1. Contrary to Seven a One does not stop the doubling and a One can be doubled itself. If you have no suitable card you are out of the round. If you can play the last card of the round, you win the round and score one point per card in the discard pile. For the next round you can fill your hand up to seven cards or discard your hand and draw seven new cards. If you are first to reach a score of 60, you win.

This is a very nice variant of the well-known mechanisms used in card shedding games, featuring the interesting detail that you can pass and leave the round even if you could play a card. A nice family game for all occasions, simple and entertaining.
