District Noir Card Game - Control the Criminal Underworld in a Strategic Battle, Fun Family Game for Kids and Adults, Ages 10+, 2 Players, 10-20 Minute Playtime, Made by Pandasaurus Games

This is a great bluffing game that has just a few simple rules. You just square off against your opponent while trying to grab cards at the right time. Don’t overlook this game. Beautiful art as well.

Some luck but alot more strategy invloved. Quick game as well, doesn't get boring and cards are good quality.

My wife and I like to play games together a couple of nights a week. This game appealed to us because of the 1940’s film noir feel that it had. We both love that time period and thought we would give it a go. The art on the cards is very good and kind of drew us in. Mobsters and mauls and boxers and thugs and toughs adorn each card. The game itself is for two players and your objective is to either garner enough cards to earn points for the win, or try to take the city by capturing three cards that have a city theme on them. You also put three cards aside that don’t come into play at all which really adds to the mystery of the game. It takes a lot of strategy and thinking to figure how to place your cards in such a way that you can gather the points together or the three city cards for the win. Pandasaurus seems to be putting out some really fun quick games like this. We both really thought it was fun and felt like we had made a good purchase.

Fine micro-card game with elements of Hanamikoji and Tussie Mussie but with a 1950's Hoboken, New Jersey crime theme. Lovely! To my mind, this game is better than either of the aforementioned games but just as fast. It's a card game with elements of hand drafting and set collection. I think that this is now our fastest game, much quicker playing than most micro-games, about 10 minutes to play. Every great small game has one or two really clever scoring bits and this is no exception. There's an opportunity for instant win, and three different scoring opportunities to weigh with every play.Only negative: The box is a bit bigger than necessary.

This game is tense, flipping a coin before each turn makes it a game of tactics as well as overall strategy. It is fun and addicting. An overlooked gem in card games.

Nice game and quick delivery.

This is a great game for two players, wish there was a way to add more but just happens to not be. This is a turn based game where you either play or pickup cards, and your opponent does the same. Each round you put down 5 cards and pickup 5 cards for your keep. The strategy comes in that when you decide to pickup you must select the last 5 cards played. So do you play the good cards now, hoping to get them on your next turn if your opponent doesn't take them first, or do you play negative cards trying to force them to your opponent? The strategy is complex but the play is simple and my 12 year old son got really into it after just a single game.

Super user friendly game. Perfect for a couple of people to play. Game play is quick and easy to learn.
