How it works

Three steps. Endless paradoxes.

Kronions is a trick-taking game — the classic kind your grandparents played — with one twist that ruins everything in the best way.

01

Deal

Everyone gets the same hand. One card flips to set the round's trump suit.

02

Bid

Predict exactly how many tricks you'll win. Too many, too few — zero points either way.

03

Play

Win the tricks you promised. Use paradox cards to rewrite outcomes. Score 10 + bid for a perfect call.

The twist

Paradox cards rewrite outcomes.

When you play a paradox, you declare it on the spot — Future (beats everything) or Past (loses to everything). Six of them in the deck. Saving one for the right trick turns into the whole game.

That's it. That's the whole trick. Simple to explain, brutal to plan around.

🔮 Future Beats anything on the table
🕳️ Past Treated as lowest, always
Why you'll like it

A game night staple, engineered.

Paradox cards
