Skip-Bo Express – Fast-Paced Strategic Card Game

Skip-Bo Express is a compact and dynamic version of the popular card game, designed for shorter and exciting matches. The aim is to arrange cards in the correct order and be the first player to get rid of all the cards from your personal stockpile.

The simple rules make it easy to start playing, while winning still requires observation, planning and clever use of the available cards. Players must decide when to develop the shared sequences and when to focus on revealing more cards from their own stockpile.

Cards are arranged in ascending order from 1 to 12. Special Skip-Bo cards act as wild cards and can replace any required number, helping players continue a sequence or escape a difficult situation.

Thanks to its compact format, the game is ideal for playing at home, during family gatherings, on holiday or while travelling. One set is designed for two players. By combining two sets, up to four people can play together.
