Bacon

A crunchy remedy for your climbing cravings.

Bacon is a climbing game with set partners for 4 or 6 players, which is all about getting out early as a team. The only team that scores is the team that goes out first. However, their score depends on when their partner also goes out (more points if the partner goes out quickly). If your team does NOT go out first, your task is simple: make sure the other team goes out as late as possible!

Players place combos (such as runs or three-of-a-kind) or “specials.” Combos must follow the leading combo. Specials (such as straight flushes or hexes) are harder to make, but do not have to follow the previous hands.
