Shogun Showdown is a trick taking game that puts a whole new spin on the genre with a dexterity element. The game begins with cards being dealt to each player evenly and then hands are played in rounds with each player playing 1 card. There are 3 suits: Red, Black, and White. In between rounds of card play (similar to Rook or Euchre), players take turns flicking cards at the winner's temple. Points are awarded on both card play and card flicking.

Simple and fun, Shogun Showdown is a nice break from conventional games that have you sitting for long periods of time.
