Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Must-follow — Players must play a card of the leading suit if they have one; otherwise, they can play any card.
- Positive and negative values — Cards have values ranging from -6 to +6, adding a unique twist to trick-taking where the total value matters for scoring.
- Scare track — A track where player pawns move based on the total value of tricks won, with a goal of scoring as few points as possible.
- Trick-taking — The core mechanic where players play cards and the highest card of the led suit wins the trick.
- Wild cards — Zero cards are wild-suited and can be played at any time, counting as zero value.

Quotes (from this video)
- Actually designed this game out of spite of trick taking games.
- if two players play the same number, they knock each other out, which is so fun and chaotic and I love it so much.
- Bidcoin. One of my favorite trick-taking games of recent.
- The goal of the game, it's one hand is to survive.
- It is the weirdest. It's a standard trick taking game in a sense that for the f until people start recycling their hands because then you can't track what cards have left the game coupled with who has won what cards.
- The overwhelming majority of tricktaking games are mid or bad.
