Flip 7: With a Vengeance

Overview

Flip 7 is back–With a Vengeance! All the fun of the original game, plus new player interactions and special take-that cards!

In this press your luck game, be the first player to score 200 points to win. You score points based on the total number value of the cards in front of you–but now, your cards are never safe!

The more valuable a card is, the more copies of that card there are in the deck. If you can successfully Flip 7 different Number cards into your line, you automatically end the round for everyone and score 15 bonus points. However, if you ever draw a second card with the same number as one already in your line, you bust and are out of the round, scoring nothing.


Important

It has thirteen 13's, twelve 12's, eleven 11's... until you get to one 1. The deck includes three Special Number cards as well as several Modifier and Action cards

Important Terms

  • Hit: Take a card.
  • Stay: Do not take a card. Turn your leftmost card sideways. Your cards are still in the round.
  • Bust: Flip a second card with the same Number. Flip your cards face down; they are out of play.
  • Active: Players who have not yet chosen to stay or busted.
  • Round: The dealing of cards until all players have busted or stayed.
  • Flip 7: Flip seven different Number cards. This ends the round immediately and scores a bonus 15 points.

Playing a Round

It's a race to 200 points. Track your score with a pen and paper, or scan the QR code for scoresheets and the scoring app.

  1. Shuffle the deck THOROUGHLY and choose a player to start as the Dealer for the round.
  2. Starting with the player on their left and continuing clockwise, the Dealer gives each player a face up card.
  3. If an Action card* or Modifier card* is flipped, pause and resolve immediately. (*See Action and Modifier cards sections below).
  4. Some players may have multiple cards, and others may have none, depending on the cards dealt.
  5. Now the Dealer offers each player the option to hit or stay. Beware! You are not safe until the end of the round.
  6. Place Number cards in a row with any Modifier cards above them.
  7. The Dealer continues dealing cards until there are no active players.

End of a Round

The round continues until one of two end conditions are met:

  1. All players have either busted or stayed.
  2. One player can Flip 7 different Number cards, ending the round immediately.

Calculate Scores as Follows:

  1. Add the value of Number cards.
  2. If you have the divide by 2 modifier cut your score in half (round down).
  3. Subtract any additional Modifiers (your score can't drop below zero).
  4. If you Flip 7, score an additional 15 points.

Example

Line: 3, 11, 5, 7, 10, 8, 4 (Flip 7 Bonus!) along with a ÷2 and -4 Modifier cards. Calculation: Total of Number Cards = 48. Apply ÷2 = 24. Apply -4 Modifier = 20. Add 15 Point Flip 7 Bonus = 35.

Starting the Next Round

  • Set all cards from the round to the side. Do not shuffle them back into the deck.
  • Pass the remaining cards in the deck to the left; that player becomes the new Dealer.
  • When the deck runs out, shuffle all the discarded cards to form a new deck.
  • If you need to reshuffle mid-round, leave all cards in front of players where they are, even if that player has busted.

End of the Game

At the end of a round when at least one player reaches 200 points, the player with the most points wins. May the cards flip in your favor!


Brutal Mode

For a more cutthroat game, use the standard gameplay with the following changes:

  • Your round score can go below zero.
  • You may give Modifier cards to any player, even if they've busted.
  • If you reach the Flip 7, you may choose to take 15 points or subtract 15 points from another player.

Special Number Cards Details

These Special Number cards have unique effects and can be stolen or swapped. Special Number cards with actions affect you when you get them and stop affecting you once they leave your possession.

The Zero

Your total score becomes zero, unless you can Flip 7. You must continue to hit on your turn. The zero card counts toward your 7 cards. If you're given a Just One More, it might not be possible to flip to 7 Number cards.

Unlucky 7

Discard all Number and Modifier cards in front of you—only keep the 7. If received during a Flip 4, discard all previous cards first, then complete the remaining flips. Good news? You cannot bust on an Unlucky 7 when you get it.

Lucky 13

If you receive the Lucky 13—Congrats! You now have the chance to break the rules and collect a second 13 without busting. You'll score them both and they count toward the Flip 7 bonus. But be careful—flip a third 13 and you'll bust!


Action Cards Details

  • If an Action card is revealed, it must be resolved immediately.
  • You may play Action cards on any player who hasn't busted—including yourself, and anyone who has chosen (or forced) to stay. If you are the only player who hasn't busted, you must play the Action card on yourself.
  • If you've stayed and receive an Action card, you must resolve it, but you do not re-enter the round.
  • Action cards are single-use and discarded after they are played.

Just One More!

Force any player to accept the next card. If an Action card is flipped, that player can resolve it. They must stay.

Swap

Swap any two face up cards—either one of your own with another player, or cards between two other players.

Steal

Steal any face up card on the table and add it to your line.

Discard

Force any player to discard one card—you decide which one!

Flip Four!

Force any player to accept the next four cards, flipping them one at a time. Regardless of how many cards remain to flip, stop if the player can successfully Flip 7 Number cards, or the player busts.

All Number, Action, and Modifier cards count toward the four cards needed. If an Action or Modifier card is revealed, they are resolved in order AFTER all four cards are drawn—as long as the player hasn't busted.


Modifier Cards Details

  • You may play Modifier cards on any player who hasn't busted, including those who have chosen to stay. If you are the only player who hasn't busted, you must keep the Modifier card for yourself.
  • Modifiers are not Number cards and do not count toward a Flip 7.
  • You cannot bust on Modifier cards. Nor can your round score go below zero (unless in Brutal Mode).
  • Modifier cards can be swapped or discarded.

÷2 Card

Divide the sum of all your Number cards by two. If you have additional Modifier cards, first divide the total of your Number cards by 2 (rounding down), then subtract the Modifier cards.

-2 to -10 Cards

Subtract the amount from the sum of your Number cards.
