Mint julep - Button Shy
Take a ride on the racetrack in this compact pocket game!
In Mint Julep, players choose cards, place bets, and then manipulate the race to ensure that the horse they want to win ends up finishing in the top spot. But be careful with your bets, because the odds might be against you!
Each game is played in 3 rounds, each consisting of three phases: 1.) choose cards for your hand 2.) bet on which horse you think will win 3.) play movement cards to adjust the order of the horses in the race.
Final scoring is based on where horses start in the race (horses starting in lower positions are worth more points), where horses finish in the race (more points earned for higher-placed horses), and when a bet was placed (later bets are worth less than earlier bets).
Score the highest points with your bet and you win!
The game is created by Button Shy - a small board game company that specializes in making quirky, strategic and entertaining pocket-sized games.
