Burst

Burst: the explosive card game that cranks up the tension

Burst is a fast-paced card game where the pressure rises every turn. Draw or play a card from your hand… but if the shared row goes over 21, it’s a burst! A bluffing and push-your-luck experience that’s perfect for family or friends.

How to play Burst

You hold 3 cards in hand throughout the game. On your turn, choose to draw a card or play one onto the shared row. If the total exceeds 21, it’s a burst: you score no points, and your opponents gain points based on the value of the cards left in their hand. The game revolves around bluffing, risk-taking, and timing to avoid exploding. Special cards shake things up by reversing the turn order, forcing discards, or retrieving cards from the row. When a player triggers a burst, the others score points equal to the value of the cards they kept — the first to reach 100 points wins!
