COPPERTWADDLE - a card game from Surprised Stare Games. This is not a collectable card game, it is a simple, well produced, easy to play, 2 player card game. Full review comming soon!


A nice box containing 55 playing cards and a rule book. All components are really well produced. The artwork is simple, but effective with a medieval wood cut feel. The wording is equally medieval, but quite understandable.

Your goal is simple: place 8 people cards (called threalms - 4 peasants and 4 nobles) on the table in a simple layout, before your opponent does! As you might expect, your opponent will try to stop you, with 'counter spell' like spoiler cards (favours) and 'enchantment' type cards (Declarations). As in medieval times, beware the robber! You can attempt to rob one of your opponents 'threalm' cards during your go, and you may be able to add it to your ranks.

Easy eh? Well, yes, its not brain surgery, but it is a fun game you can play in about half an hour. The long term draw of this is limited. Great for their first commercial game, it is a good step in the right direction.
