Vote for 'Flip 7' to win the 'Toy of the Year' award!(Below is the transcript from the broadcast story)Play with as many or as little people as youd like and get ready to press your luck!We actually played a lot of games when we were in high school. One of my friends came up with this idea when were playing a game, and if you get a pair, two 10s or two 8s or something, something would happen, said Eric Olsen.And when it comes to getting doubles in this game Its not a good thing. And if you do get two of the same number you bust and cant collect any points for that round.If you get another 12, you are going to bust. If I get another 10, Im going to bust, explained Olsen.Lets break it down even further. The dealer will go around and give each player a card until the player feels its too risky, with the goal of getting as many points as possible.At any point you can stop. So whats the point of the game? The first person to get to 200 points wins the game, said Olsen.Besides the numbered cards, there are a few action cards theres an add three card, a second chance card, and a freeze card players can even play these actions against each other. And why is it called Flip 7?If you manage to get seven of those cards face up without busting, you end the round and you get a bonus, explained Olsen.Players will add up points from each round until someone with some luck - or maybe even some skill - reaches 200 points.Its kind of a fun twist on games you already know intuitively, said Sean.Itd be really fun if you had like a really big family because theres a bunch of cards in there. If everybodys being really loud you can just whip out that game and be like okay were playing cards! said Erika. From concept to hitting the shelves, Olsen tells me this game took over 3 years to create.Flip 7 is up against 6 other games for Toy of the Year. You can vote for them by clicking this link.
