Jimbo's 99

Game ID: GID0174087
Collection Status
Description

"Jimbo's 99" is published in 1976 and therefore a predecessor of "O'NO 99" (BGG game 7803), because the rules are exactly identical:

You must avoid passing 99 points or you loose the round and thus 1 of your 3 tokens. The last player with remaining tokens wins the game.
Different from O'NO 99 is the deck of 52 cards. In Jimbo's 99 there are 4 suits (compared to 3 in O'NO 99) and only 16 special cards (compared to 30).

The special cards here are:
- 4 x "Reverse"
- 4 x "Hold"
- 4 x "Minus 10"
- 4 x "99"

That means that the "Ten" and "Double Play" cards were added later.
