Read the full game description

HIT! Extreme expands Reiner Knizia’s compact push-your-luck card game with disruptive special cards. On your turn, reveal cards one at a time and decide whether to stop or keep drawing. A repeated number busts the turn, but matching cards already banked by an opponent can be stolen into your own score pile. Extreme cards add sharper reversals and table interaction while preserving the original game’s quick rhythm: read the exposed numbers, judge how much value remains in the deck, and decide when a safe haul is worth more than one more draw. The result is a portable, highly interactive filler with immediate rules and plenty of dramatic stops.
