About this board game
Rowdy Partners is a team trick-taking game for 2–4 players, with each game taking about 60 minutes. Set in the sun-baked Wild West town of Dusty Gulch, it turns disagreements into wrestling matches in the Rowdy Ring.
Each round is made up of eight tricks. Work with your partner to outplay the opposing players, drain their health through calculated strikes and sneaky counters, and build toward the decisive pin.
The match is not limited to a single wrestler. During play, you can swap wrestlers mid-match, unleash signature moves, and collect Pop to gain the upper hand. These elements give each round a shifting rhythm as partners coordinate their efforts and opponents try to stay in control.
