Dobro

About the game

What is Dobro?

Dobro is a fast climbing game in which you have three options on your turn: Play a card higher than the value in play; Play two identical cards, doubling their value; or Play a card with the same value in play to double it! If you can't play any card, that's bad! Put all cards in play into your score pile, then start a new climbing. When a player plays the last card in their hand, the round ends and players receive points based on the cards in their score pile. The fewer cards you have, the more points you get! Take advantage of the special cards, using them at the right time in order to change the direction of play, skip your turn, or even play any number to avoid getting cards. At the end of three rounds, the player with the highest score wins!
