Which one suits you?
Stack Rush
A card game about laying cards in the right order: everyone builds the same four piles from 1 to 12, but each of you only wants to empty your own stock. The fun is in long turns where one card frees up the next.
Pick Stack Rush when two to six people want a relaxed card game with something to puzzle over.
Fib Finder
A baffling question with a blank, and everyone makes up a believable wrong answer. Then all the answers appear side by side with the truth: spot the real one and you score – fool others and you score too.
Pick Fib Finder when you love spinning a tale and know each other well enough to fool one another.
What they have in common
- Both work for 3–6 players.
- In both, everyone has secret information on their own phone.
- Both come free with Gather and need no account.
