999 games gesjaakt

The card game ‘Gesjaakt’ from the Dutch brand 999 Games is all about smart choices, good timing, and a little bit of nerve. Take a card or pay chips to pass on it. It sounds simple, except that all the cards left in your hand at the end give you penalty points. Everyone tries to keep their score the lowest!

Every turn brings fresh doubts to the table. Is that card worth the penalty points, or would you rather put down another chip hoping another player takes it? Meanwhile, the stacks grow and every decision gets more exciting.

The game combines simple rules with a surprising amount of tactics. Through play, children practice thinking ahead, assessing risks, and making smart choices during fast-paced rounds full of suspense.

You can play this game with 3 to 7 players, and a round takes about 20 minutes to complete.
