📖 About This Game
Peter Piper is a quick and clever 4-player card game about color and number balance.
Players play cards to their tableau, triggering swaps with cards of the same color but exactly 1 higher in value. By timing these exchanges carefully, players can disrupt others while trying to reach a total value of exactly 11 in front of themselves.
With all 24 cards (0–5 in four colors) dealt at the start, every move reveals information and affects everyone else. The challenge is to anticipate what your rivals are aiming for and prepare your hand accordingly — the winner is the one who ends their turn perfectly at 11!
Designed for quick yet thoughtful play, Peter Piper offers a satisfying mix of timing, observation, and subtle interference.
