うそつきジャッジ (Usotsuki Judge)

Description

Two cosmic gods want the same star — but since their powers are equal, they’ve agreed to settle the matter with a battle of lies and logic. In a duel of bluffs and bold claims, players compete for victory stars, pretending to win tricks they may not have earned — and punishing each other with “fake moons” when lies are exposed. Usotsuki Judge is a two-player trick-taking and bluffing game where only one player knows the truth, and the other must decide whether to call it. Each round, both players play a card face-down, and the lead player announces who "won" the trick. The opponent may challenge that declaration or accept it. Cards are then revealed: if the claim was false and the lie is caught, the liar receives a penalty; if the bluff goes uncalled, the liar earns the trick. First to earn two victory stars wins — but collect two fake moons, and you lose instantly.
