Step into Who-ville and press your luck in a festive, holiday-themed spin on the hit additive card game where stealing points is half the fun and busting turns you into a total Grinch.
Flip 7: The Grinch Edition (published by The Op Games / USAopoly) reimagines the ultra-popular push-your-luck filler game with classic Dr. Seuss artwork, holiday flair, and beloved Whos. Shifting away from heavy board management, this fast-paced card game centers on quick probability calculations, press-your-luck risks, and direct player interaction. The primary gameplay objective remains a race to 200 points across multiple quick-fire rounds: active players flip cards one by one into their personal tableau, trying to build a high-scoring set of Whos while deciding whether to play it safe or push for one more draw.
The primary mechanical hurdle stems from the mathematical distribution of the 94-card deck—the card's point value dictates its exact frequency in the deck (only one 1 card, two 2s, three 3s, up to twelve 12s). Drawing a duplicate number causes an immediate bust, leaving you with zero points while the Whos down in Who-ville cry BOO-HOO. Designed for 3 or more players aged 8 and up, the themed edition features custom Grinch artwork across all number cards alongside revamped action cards—using Freeze to lock down rivals, forcing risky draws with Flip Three, or burning a Second Chance to avoid a round-ending bust. Victory relies on reading the remaining deck odds, knowing when to cash in a modest point run, and dodging duplicate cards to secure a victory worthy of Mt. Crumpit.
