About the game
Won Over is a trick-taking card game with a race-to-the-finish twist. Players compete to advance pawns along a 12-space track toward a Finish card, with each trick won moving their token forward—unless another player is already in the way, in which case you leap ahead to the next open spot! Trump suits shift with the lead pawn's position, and special cards add strategy and surprise: Suit Yourself cards act as ultimate trumps, overriding the current suit. Sidetracked cards temporarily bump players off the track until their next trick win. The game supports 2–4 players with variants for each count. With its mix of classic card mechanics and positional strategy, Won Over adds a clever spatial layer to traditional trick-taking gameplay.
