It comes with 3 player aids and rulebooks in several languages. Haggis includes 54 cards in 5 suits (you remove a suit in a 2-player game), numbered from 2-10 with 3 sets of jacks, queens and kings of which you remove one set for the 2-player game.

I want to point out that Indie Boards and Cards have made a habit of taking some traditional games and making them playable with smaller groups… Resistance and Avalon are redesigns of Are you a Werewolf that require no mediator, elimination or large numbers of players to enjoy. The beauty of this game is the ability to play it with only two players… and that’s how I like it best. Haggis is a climbing card game similar to Tichu, but can be played with 2-3 players. I’m not saying I will never try it… but the list of ingredients makes me rethink hot dogs and other “sausages.” As I am a quarter Scotch-Irish, I do believe I can say this without offense. Haggis is a game named after possibly one of the most disgusting combinations of internal organs ever to grace a dinner plate. Today, we are going to talk about a game that needs a little more love here on.
