PEAS is a board game released in 2023 for 2 players, 30 minutes per game, and ages 10 and up. It was designed by kota konno and its main mechanics are Trick-taking and Lane Battler.
PEAS is a two-player "trick lane" game in which each trick is assigned a number of points (roughly -2 to +3). On your turn, you can play to any of the tricks; if you are the second to play to a specific trick, you must follow the suit of the first card played there, if possible. The first person to play to the first trick will lead in the first trick; otherwise, resolve as expected. The first person to win two hands wins.
PEAS supports 2 players according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for PEAS is 30 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists PEAS for ages 10 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
PEAS has a complexity rating of 1.5 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
