Looking for an awesome pub game for 2-4p! (lemmy.world)

What we‘re looking for:

  • Easy to learn, hard to master
  • small footprint
  • It has to be great with both 2 or more players (up to 5)
  • exciting (push your luck or take that or similar mechanisms, maybe bluffing? A coop small engine builder tycoon game heavier than Bohnanza maybe?)

What we already have and like, but are bad with 2p

  • The Crew: Awesome, but sucks at 2p
  • For Sale
  • High Society

What we didn‘t enjoy:

  • Sushi Go Party
  • Cascadia (also too big)
  • King if Toyko (awesome but a bit too big, we‘d prefer a game without dice)
  • Love Letter
  • Coup

Never played the original but Star Fluxx is FANTASTIC. It's been my groups go to bar game for a while

We have Zombie, Pirate, Space, and Cthulhu Fluxx. Zombie is the simplest one that we play the most and they get more complicated (cards affecting other cards/players more, etc) with some of the other decks. Personally I am not a fan of Cthulhu Fluxx but the other three are great!

Shuffle a couple of them together. It makes a crazy game even crazier.
