レディファースト (Lady First) 2020

レディファースト (Lady First) is a re-implementing of レディファースト (Lady First), with additional sets of cards to allow 3 or 4 players as well as the original 2 player game. Two sets of male cards have been added, otherwise the gameplay is the same.

The game has a romantic theme, with one set of red cards themed for a woman, and blue sets for a man. Each cards carries various romantic lines (all in Japanese), that the players ought to speak as they play.

Players draw and play out hand cards, with a set of numbers on each card controlling which others may follow it. If the blue player can get the red player to exhaust their cards first, blue wins. Otherwise, blue loses.

The red deck has 12 cards numbered from 1 to 12 (and this player starts), the blue deck has 11 cards from 2 to 12. On their turn, a player may draw one card from their deck, up to a hand limit of five, or play a card to the table.

Along the bottom of each card is a set of numbers, one for blue and one for red. These say what card can be played after this card. For example, the blue 5 can be followed by a blue 2,3,4 and 6 or by a red 4 or red 6-12.

As players go through their deck, they must carefully decide which cards to hold and which to play, in order to push more cards out of their opponent's hand. user summary
