Fireside Games’ latest card game puts players’ matching skills to the test.
Designed for players ages 10 and up, this competitive card-matching game challenges players to remove all the cards in the 15-card pyramid by playing matches out of their hand and a shared pool called the alta hand. Players can match cards by number, value, or color. They can also combine cards to equal the value of a card in the pyramid. For example, a player can match a yellow 3 card and a blue 4 card to a green 7 card.

As more matches are made, players get two more cards for each Ultimatch — one for their hand and one for the alta hand. The game ends when players clear the pyramid or don’t have any legal moves left. Each round lasts around 20 minutes, which is perfect for a fast-paced game night or one last round to close off a night of bigger games.
Fireside Games’ Ultimatch is available now on Amazon for $9.95.
