My favorite trick taker. Schadenfreude has one of the most exciting game arches, player start getting some points and it's all good until it's not... Hilarious game were it is fun to mess with other players ?

Schadenfreude is a trick-taking game for 3-5 players. The game ends when a player exceeds 40 points, and the winner is the one closest to 40 without going over. The card distribution includes some negative values, it is a game of "obligation to respond" and does not have trump suits. The winner of a trick is the player who plays the second highest card of the opening suit. That player collects their card and all cards that did not follow the suit into their score pile. However, a player can have at most one card of each value in their score pile. If they collect a second one, both cards are discarded instead. At the end of a hand, a player scores points equal to the sum of the values of the collected cards.

arguably my favorite trick taker still. such a great balance of control and tension. the twists are unique but not hard to grasp and make for some great interaction bc people quickly understand how they can mess with each other.
A weird trick-taker that really bends players' minds. It has a strange crossover appeal, it feels extremely chaotic to me but eurogamers are okay with this. Maybe it's the title, reassuring players to not take things too seriously? Or maybe because it "reinvents" a lot of assumptions. Okay sadly that's it, they like it because it's different and has no theme. But whatever, I like getting it played! In 5p, it's almost always over in two rounds. I like how swingy that gets, but it can be alarming to others so beware.
I am fascinated by this game. The winning by being second in all aspects of this game is so trippy and I want to play it again and again. So much adrenaline at the end of the game. So many great moments that result in everyone laughing at one players misfortune. My favorite trick-taker, hands down. Only critique is that the blue and purple colors confuse a lot of people in the OG version’s artwork - get used to calling out swords vs shields. The new artwork I like less because it’s less practical when playing (I like the numbers being large in the middle of the card.)
[microbadge=33173] Trick-taking Game Schadenfreude is a beautiful shakeup of the genre by focusing on being second-best on everything. The second-high card would win each trick, and at the end of the game, whoever had the second highest score would win the game. There's a lot of instinct to unlearn in your head, which I found delightful.
