About the game

Truffle Shuffle is a quick card-drafting game where players collect chocolate truffles from a shared, overlapping display to build the best assortment for sale. Special modifier and action cards let you tweak and complete sets in creative ways, and the ever-shifting card layout keeps each game different. With a simple drafting core, it plays fast and light while leaving room for tactical set-collection decisions. It's an easy pickup for casual card game fans of any age.

Hobbli's Notes

Truffle Shuffle is a breezy set-collection filler with a charming chocolate theme that makes it easy to bring to the table. Hobbli's team appreciates how the overlapping card display forces tight tactical choices despite the game's short 30-minute runtime. It won't challenge experienced strategy gamers, but it's a pleasant, quick game for mixed groups. The theme and card art add extra charm to an otherwise simple drafting formula.
