Chards® uses a deck of 52 cards (Chards®) with the normal suits: Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, and Clubs. Each player selects a favorite suit, places their King on the board and begins to play these unique chess and fun card games. Chards® are added to the board during play anywhere on the board so the playing field—and challenge—is always changing.
Each Turn - Players do three things on their turn: Move a Chard, Turn (twist) a Chard, and Place a Chard from their stockpile. It's FUN! ... and Easy!
Chess games to play with characters include Kings, Queens, Bishops, Knights, Rooks and Pawns.
Card characters include Jacks and Jokers and Dukes (ever played with a deuce in cards?). Chards® even has Archers and Wizards to give the game a special twist. And it’s the twists in the game that make it exciting!
There are no stalemates in Chards®. Surprises are common so winners often come from behind. Are you clever or lucky? It takes a bit of both to win at Chards®. That’s what makes it FUN!
Whether it’s family fun or party entertainment, Chards TM is a chess and card game that players want to play again and again. The FUN is enjoyed by all ages, be they adults or teens or kids. Have a tournament. Form a club. Use Chards® as a fund raising event.
Most of all – Chards® is a great way to have FUN!
FUN is what SoFun® is all about!
