EASY PEASY: And up, and down!

Get rid of your cards and end the round when you think you have the lowest score...
But be careful, you do not know all of your cards! Will you take the time to reveal them?
On your turn, play your cards on one of the 2 discard piles, respecting the direction set by the Up&Down card: either go up in value, or go down. Do not hesitate to change this direction to gain an advantage and slow down your opponents!
Anticipate your actions to get rid of the cards you have in your hand or in front of you at the right moment (some of which are hidden at the start) to end the round and score as few points as possible! After 3 rounds, the player with the lowest score wins the game.
It's clever and fast, a perfect game to start your waking-up routine on a Monday, especially by going through the tutorial:

Let's thank the whole game designer team:
Thomas Favreliere, Alex Fortineau and Simon Moulard, not forgetting the publisher,
BLAM, and the developer who made it happen for Board Game Arena,
Moof.
That's a small dish to start the week, but a lot of fun perspectives!
See you on Wednesday for more appetizers (or the main course?)
Until then, take care and play fair!

Just 1 Flanders this time, and he's unambiguous

Happy to see it! Maybe they are finally listening to us complainers
Oh, the game looks fun btw.
I like how Flanders takes precedent over the actual content of the news post.

I just played 2 games of this one, 6 rounds in total. I am sorry to say that, but I never had such are horrible game experience here on BGA! My impression was I had zero influence on the game outcome. I was craving to end the game as soon as possible.
Or am I just too stupid to play such an easy peasy game?

Actually I didn’t think he was ‘Easy Peasy’ to find.

It's a good game, very fun, but the Arena version is not very good as the three hands limits makes most games not as fun as they could be: if a player is more than 25 points away from the other players after two hands, why bother to play the third hand? Please for next season, put a point limits (30 or 50) to win the game, not just the three hands (or also five hands) limit
