Trio*
Trio is a card game where players search for triplets. The deck consists of 36 cards, numbered from 1 to 12 three times. Players sort their hands from low to high and take turns revealing cards, aiming to collect sets of three matching cards.
If a player reveals three cards of the same number, they keep the set. The game is won when a player collects three sets or specific combinations that total seven, like a 4 and an 11. The rules accommodate different player counts and allow for team play, making it versatile.
Nominated for 7 awards and won 2.
