A card game about....brawling?!
Hey guys, how are you doing?
Huge thanks to The Nerdologues for sending out "Fisticuffs!" for me to review! Fisticuffs is a card game where you fight the other players to the death in the exquisite air vehicle of a billionare playboy. Let's check it out.
The basic concept of Fisticuffs is that you try to "Knockout" all of the other players. The players determine via any method who goes first, after battling over that, the player who is going first receives the "Glove" and "Bell" cards. Then, they play any one of their cards, if it is a "Punch" Card(any card with a "-" something(ex. "-5") number on the card) then the player who played the card has to direct it at a different player, if that player has the SAME card, then they can play it to block the damage, then counter it with any other card. All the cards clearly state what they do on them, which I haven't seen since I reviewed Exploding Kittens, every game manufacturer should do this!
Fisticuffs arrives in a small, almost pocket-able box. It's only a bit bigger than an average 5.5 Inch Smartphone. It even fits into some pockets! It's super portable and easy to set up! The instructions are clearly written and easy to understand, props to The Nerdologues for that! The only thing that I didn't find clearly written, is how a brawl ends. For us, the brawl and the player with the "Glove" card's turn ends. Or when everyone involved in the brawl runs out of cards. Play is really fun and exciting as you watch people team up on each other and back again!
Final Verdict - 10/10
