Coach Ride to Devil's Castle (Die Kutschfahrt zur Teufelsburg, aka The Castle of the Devil)

Coach Ride cover - a horse-drawn carriage gallops franticly through the nightThis little card game is very simple and completely fiendish. Members of two secret societies are stuffed into a coach on a frantic journey. Each has hidden an artefact in their luggage. If either group can get the right set of artefacts before they reach their destination, they win.

The problem is, nobody knows the other members of their society.

Players can trade objects from their luggage or attack another player in an effort to see what they have. However, they have to make their own minds up about who belongs to which side. This means the game is infinitely replayable as different players bring their own approach to the game and adapt to the other players. And all this in a deck of cards.

Coach Ride is a hugely atmospheric game that is really gripping to play and has become something of a classic with versions from several different publishers. This is the original edition and I also have the Dark Prophecy expansion.

For 3-10 players, aged 12+, playing time 30 minutes: £6.00 (£5.00 without tax outside the UK)
    (Note that the cards and rules are in both English and German, although there's only German on the box)

To increase the paranoia (as if you needed to!), this expansion adds further complications to the coach ride. First off, the coach's driver can play a part in proceedings. Then there may be a traitor in the mix. And more events to complicate things further.

For 3-10 players, aged 12+, playing time 30 minutes: £7.00 (£5.83 without tax outside the UK)
