Rooted in traditional Trick-taking games like Hearts or Spades, Reapers has some major differences that set it apart:
Every hand is drafted from face-up piles of three cards rather than dealt to players.
Winners of tricks score the lowest value card in the trick rather than the trick itself as a point.
In addition to having four suits, the game also includes two different special cards.*
Players place a wager as to how they think they will do in each hand, with options for scoring the fewest points, scoring the second most points, or not trying to predict - all of which can be viable strategies.
