Board Game Arena

Hola! And welcome to a very special Board Game Arena release: TRIO!
Special because it is one of these game that are released from our side, as a surprise for all to enjoy! [Not all games are in public beta ]

And because the game is short, very fun and quite addicting, we need to talk a bit about it first.

How does it play? Simple:
First, we deal 10/9/8 or 6 cards (depending on player count) face down to the table. Players are dealt 10/8/7/6 cards, and their hands are arranged in numerical order. That is important.

On your turn, take either of these actions up to three times:
1) - Flip a table card face-up
2) - Reveal a hand card: Choose any player and select a card at either end of their hand: that card is placed face-up in front of them.
If you reveal three cards with the same value, it is a success: claim this "trio" of cards as a scoring set.

If your second or third card does not match those already revealed, you fail: the revealed cards are returned to their previous places.

To win, you have to take 3 sets of Trios- or the trio of three 7s.

Want to add more spice to the game?
Try the Picante mode: Win if you take two "linked" trios (where the cards of one trio include a small icon of the other), or the trio of three 7s.

That is it! It is simply brilliant, and there is no doubt that some Hanabi players will find some joy in this game, as it has some similarities in team mode. Yes, you can also play it with teams.

Curious? Try it right here right now:

No games on BGA without developers, and it is thanks to appollo1001s work that it has been possible to bring this game to your platform!
Obviously, the game cannot be published without a game author and... a publisher. Thanks to the Cocktail Games team, and the amazing work done by Kaya Miyano designing this wonderful short game.

Will you be addicted? You love it? You don't?
Share your thoughts! We're listening!
And that's it for today's WRT release.
Until next week, take care and...
Play fair!

I was expecting/hoping he'd be upside-down with the top of the 11 card as his moustache.

Hoi allemaal, ik heb even een vraagje over trio.
Ik had als eerste 3 trio’s de 11,10,12 en de speler na mij had daarna 3 trio’s de 2,3,9.
Nu heeft hij gewonnen kan iemand mij uitleggen waarom? Bedankt
Groetjes marlou

You played with the Spicy/Picante rules. So you would need two linked trios to win instead of the normal three. In your case, none of your trios were linked to each other.

Thanks for explaining

obsessed! where can I buy in Canada?
