Coup - The Review

Coup is a quick fun game our family loves to play, our family has a hard time bluffing in fact Andrew is the only one who consistently does. You might think with a family that does not bluff the game would be rather dull. That is not the case our family loves playing this game, probably no one more than Nathaniel (the 11 year old).

If you want a quick game to play as a family our with your game group, this is a game to include in your repertoire. It is the perfect game to play while you wait for people to arrive, another game to finish or as the last game of the night.

Coup - Quick game play

Coup is a classic bluffing game where each player gets two cards and can use the power of any card they can get away with. Game play is fast and intense. Learn to play and see what you can get away with when you try to bluff your way to victory. But don't forget if you get caught bluffing you will be out of the game in a hurry.

Coup video on cards and how to play

I had a fun time with this video.  I decided to add some graphics to help explain the cards.  If you have not play this card game.  It is a quick and fun game.  I am not a fan of bluffing games, but this one is good.  My son does not ever bluff and he usually wins, so it can still be played, because you just never know if this is the one time a player is going to bluff.
