Riposte!

Description

En guarde! You've been challenged to a duel. Play cards simultaneously, trying to score points against your opponent in this game of wits and strategy. Each move limits your options for the next, so track your opponent's cards and choose your moves just as carefully. Riposte! is an 18-card strategy game. Both players have identical nine-card hands. Play starts with a random card from each player. Each card lists three other cards that can follow it. Players simultaneously choose and reveal their follow cards. Each card shows which other cards it scores against. If no one scores, both players choose another card for their next move, and the round continues. When someone scores a hit, the scoring card is removed from the game to track points. Players then pick up the rest of their cards and begin a new round. The first player to score their fourth point wins. —description from the publisher
