3 Witches is a must-follow, trick-taking game with no trump suit. At the start of each round, players bid on how many tricks they can win (out of five). The highest bidder becomes the Lead Witch, and their opponents play together on a team as Lesser Witches.
The Lead Witch plays two cards (one face down), while the two Lesser Witches combine one card each. Two ingredients of the same rank or suit get added together, leading to tricky situations!
If the Lead Witch wins exactly the number of tricks that they bid, they receive two fate tokens at the end of the round; if not, each Lesser Witch receives one fate token. The first player to collect five fate tokens wins.
Unique 3-Player Gameplay
You'll take some turns playing the villain of the table, and others where you'll desperately cheer your frenemy on as you work together against the Lead Witch. This dynamic isn't found in many other card games!
Limited Card Pool
In 3 Witches, there are only 18 ingredient cards in five suits, and they've got asymmetric ranks. You'll have to cleverly discern what cards could come out, especially if you're the Lead Witch!
Tiny Trickery
As one of our more advanced Tiny Games, 3 Witches is appealing to even the biggest trick-taking fans. Every modern trick-taker has a twist, and this one is especially twisted.
