Highland Panic Reviews

Lots of fun, even against bots. I haven't played this with friends yet, but given the opportunities to react to your opponents' situations and try to beat them to the punch, it's got all the ingredients for a fantastic party game. Best with 4 players for sure. I was not familiar with Dutch Blitz, but there's a surprising amount of depth to it. Managing your trading piles (don't just move cards there without thinking- you may cover up a higher card you'll want to play), keeping track of which cards you're waiting for your opponents to play to the clan piles, and the trickiest part, paying attention to all of your opponents. Everyone's piles are face-up, so good luck keeping track of it all! If you really need to play that red 3 from your panic pile, but some of your opponents have the same card, you'd better be fast when the red 2 gets played!
