Protect your hens, unleash your foxes and then outsmart the competition in Sly, a compact bluffing card game that packs deception, deduction as well as tactical choices into a box the size of a pack of gum. Every card you place could save a hen, feed a fox or expose an opponent’s secret plan.
 
Players secretly place numbered Hen cards or Fox cards around the Hen House, carefully choosing when to hide their intentions. On your turn, you can lay a card face down, challenge an opponent by exposing a suspected Fox or reveal cards around the Hen House to trigger a feeding frenzy. Timing matters because the wrong reveal could send your valuable hens straight into a rival’s score pile.
 
The clever twist is that Foxes are not simply bad cards. Successfully exposing an opponent’s Fox lets you capture it for points, while Safe Hens score based on their position around the Hen House. Gobbled Hens can also earn points, though eating one of your own comes with a nasty penalty. Every decision becomes a calculation of risk, bluffing as well as opportunity.
 
The game ends when the Hen House is full with all cards revealed or a player begins a turn with only one card left. Final scoring rewards Safe Hens, captured enemy Foxes along with gobbled Hens, giving players multiple paths to victory.
 
Tiny enough for a pocket yet packed with tension, Sly is an ideal travel card game to take on holidays for an entertaining game night especially when with people who enjoys bluffing games with plenty of hidden information.
