Will you be greedy and write a higher number or be sneaky and eliminate others. 3-5 Players | 15 Mins | Ages 8+ Features: Paper-and-Pencil Category: Numbers Description: This little Japanese game doesnt fit into any single category. You dont realize how rich The Number is while playing.

The Number is an expert mix of mechanics: Bluffing, Risk-taking, but also Guessing (a mechanic that involves anticipating your opponents next moves and adapting your strategy accordingly). It takes 5 minutes to learn, but you wont have it all figured out yet! Each turn, all players secretly write a number from 000 to 999 on their tile, then simultaneously reveal them.

Writing a bigger number gives you more points, but its also a risky bet... since if you share a digit with any of the smaller numbers, you dont gain any points! As turns progress, there are fewer possibilities, making each decision more strategic.

After 2 rounds, the player with the highest score wins the game.
