About this item
Designed for both kids and adults with the easy-to-learn fun of a classic matching game and the depth of gin rummy. There are only two rules: Steal or Score. You collect matching sets of cards by stealing from your opponents. You feel good about things, then not so good about things as opponents steal your cards back. Repeat this emotional rollercoaster until somebody wins the game.

Customer reviews
What customers say: This card game is praised for being easy to learn and offering engaging, quick fun for all ages. Some reviewers note it plays best with fewer players and can feel a bit too quick sometimes.
★★★☆☆
Okay, but a bit too simple
The concept is straightforward and easy to grasp, which is good for younger players. I got the Italian version for my nephews. However, as an adult, I found it lacked a bit of strategic depth. It’s fine for a quick diversion but probably not for extended play.
★★★★★
Quick and exciting family fun
Such a clever card game that's perfect for a quick round or two. We got the Spanish edition for our family to practice, and the rules are simple enough for everyone to follow. The 'take that' mechanic keeps everyone on their toes, making each turn exciting.
★★★★☆
Good for quick rounds
This card game is easy to learn and plays quickly, which is a plus. We often bring out the Polish version for a few rounds. My only minor gripe is that sometimes the game can end so fast that you don't feel like you've really settled into a rhythm. Still, it's very enjoyable.

Our new favorite quick game
We were looking for something fast and fun to play with our seven-year-old before bed, and this is it! The play time of 10-15 minutes is spot on, which is great for short attention spans. It’s simple enough for him to understand but still keeps us engaged.
