Five Cucumbers

2-5 Players  |  25 Mins  |  Ages 14+

Five Cucumbers is a trick taking game with the goal of NOT winning the last trick! It’s not easy. You have two choices on your turn: Take over a trick by playing a high card or discard your lowest card. It is not enough to keep a low card in your hand for the last trick. You will also need some high cards for taking over key tricks.

Five Cucumbers is a modern variant of the trick taking game “Agurk”, well-known primarily in Scandinavia. We are excited to bring you our modern version!
