Seven Prophecies
Description
Seven Prophecies (Nanatsu no Yogen, 七つの予言) is a trick-taking card game with bidding.
You can predict the future, the order in which cards will be played. You thought you could never lose with such an ability, but it seems all players can predict the future in the same way. Will you be able to fulfill your prediction and win the future?
Players, using cards from their hand, play 7 to 10 mini-games called tricks. Before starting, each player predicts how many times they will finish 1st, 2nd and in other positions. The first to fulfill their prediction earns points.
Unlike many trick-taking games with bidding, where you declare how many tricks you will win, here you must declare how many times you will finish in each position, for example twice first, once second, once third and three times fourth. It's not so difficult: you know the future. Before the game starts you know the suits in play for all tricks, so you compare this information with your hand and declare with which cards you're likely to win. Beware: the other players have the same information. Try to read their intentions and predict what positions you will finish in.

How can you possibly go wrong estimating which tricks you will take? You know beforehand which suits will be played when... then you start playing your had and it all goes sideways. Great fun.

Sunny Bird edition. Genial juego de bazas, con muy pocas reglas y una gestión de la apuesta inicial y la mano con mucha agencia. Una especie de programación de bazas muy curiosa. Muy buena edición con pantallas. Quizá el gorro de bruja de puntuación sea un poco incómodo.

Very fun at 3, definitely curious to try it at 4. The locked in suits lend a lot to the prediction aspect. Very creative innovation.

I thought this one was super interesting. You actually predict not only which tricks you will win, but which ones you will come in 2nd, 3rd and last. It makes every card "good". Nice design.
