The card game Silver rethemes an older game into a spinoff of the One Night Ultimate Werewolf universe. Read keithlaw's review.
is a quick-moving card game that asks players to try to manipulate their hands of five cards to get lower and lower numbers … except that the cards start the game face-down, and you don’t know what your cards are until you draw action cards that let you peek.
On your turn, you take the top card from the deck and look at it. You can decide to keep it in your village, exchanging it for any one card you already have, or for multiple cards of the same numerical value . You can choose to activate its power, if it has one, and then discard it. Or you can simply discard it outright. That’s your entire turn, so downtime between player turns is extremely quick.
The round ends when one player uses their turn to call for a vote, which you’d only do if you thought you had the lowest point total. You can only call for a vote when you have four cards or fewer in your village, so you’ll have to use the exchange feature where you trade in multiple cards with the same face value to get to do so. At that point, all players reveal the face-down cards in their village and add up the points on all of their cards.
Games take under an hour, and with two players you can rip through a game in under a half hour. There’s a good bit of text on the cards that might slow younger players down, but there are no game concepts here that an 8-year-old who’s played other board games couldn’t grasp. It’s a solid, highly portable game for family play but probably filler for folks who like their games a little meatier.
