Sopio
is a dedicated deck card game, created by
Alex Day and his cousin, Danny. Players take turns to play cards, on themselves, or on each-other. The goal is to reach 1000 points. There are many different cards, with four decks and accompanying expansion packs.
Tropes include:
- Elemental Powers: Element Fire, Element Earth, Element Water, and Element Wind in the first pack, more in the second.
- Forced Transformation: There's a card that turns you into a wombat for a turn.
- Game-Breaker: The point of the Reindeer booster pack, with effects that include discarding the entire deck, adding the entire discard pile to your hand, stealing all of the other player's hands and ending the game immediately which will absolutely guarantee a win if you've got the most points at the time, no questions asked. invoked
- Loads and Loads of Rules: Sweetly, sweetly averted. The rules come on two cards, one labelled "The Rules", the other "Not the rules".
