About

Wicked Cribbage is a card game that overlays the game of cribbage. All of the rules of regular cribbage apply to Wicked Cribbage. Same standard 52-card deck and hole-riddled piece of wood. What has been added are two new types of cards intended to provide additional strategy and to enhance existing elements of chance. These two new cards consist of those that you play immediately when drawn and those that you hold until you decide to use them. The Wicked Cribbage cards have been given fittingly descriptive cribbage names. TWINKLER: This card must be played immediately, and is drawn when count reaches 15 or 31 during The Play. LUGGER: This card is held until ready to play, and is drawn during The Show by pegging at an exact multiple of 5. That is, when a player's peg lands directly on a 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. Draw the Wicked Cribbage card per the above and obey its instructions. Victory is achieved in the same way as cribbage: when one player reaches 121 points. —description from the publisher
