Coyote ENGLISCH

Coyote - cunning, clever, and charming!

One day, when Coyote crossed the river with his friends, he nearly drowned and lost everything he was carrying. The poor Coyote became very sad and also envious. So he challenged the other animals to a game where they could win each other's possessions. Being a notorious trickster, he invented a game that required a lot of bluffing. Rumor has it that this game is very similar!

In this bluffing game by Spartaco Albertarelli, players can only see the cards of others, but never their own. When it's a player's turn, they must announce a number that is lower than the total sum of all cards in play and increase the last announced number. Alternatively, they can challenge the previously announced number. When all cards are revealed, it becomes clear who has the clever Coyote on their side.

Coyote is in line with our jury-recommended Game of the Year card game, spicy. The game box and the backs of the cards are adorned with a special copper-colored metallic print. Copper is deeply rooted in the tradition of the tribes of the Northwest Coast as a symbol of prosperity and cultural wealth. The artist Zona Evon Shroyer (Yupik Alaskan Native) is a master of the traditional art of the Northwest Coast, whose richness of detail and complexity require years of study and practice. For the cover illustration of Coyote, she has given the Coyote a modern silhouette filled classically with other animal motifs: turtle, beaver, and bear. These are the animals with whom he sits around the campfire in our little story, playing a game.

A Coyote never loses!.
