Editorial Review
Almost a century old, Flinch is the seemingly simple but surprisingly difficult card game in which players attempt to discard from their stockpiles of 10 cards by playing them in numerical sequence (when possible). Sure, it sounds like a round of this could be over in minutes, but it never turns out that way. The original, handsome design of the cards is still intact, but the makers of the game have come up with some additional contests for modern folk, including Flinch 2000, with wild cards. There's also a solitaire version and one just for kids. --Tom Keogh

From the Manufacturer
A perennial favorite since 1903. The original and still best stockpile card game.

Great multi-generational game
I grew up playing Flinch with my mother and grandmother. They were absolutely ruthless, and I loved every minute. They also used the cards to play another game called "Donkey". I have been looking for this game for years because we wore out several sets of cards. No one had ever heard of it. I'm glad it is back in print. Now I know what to get Mom for Christmas!

Fabulously Fun!
I was delighted to discover that this game is still in print! My twin brother and I used to play this game with our grandparents in the 1950s, and always ended up screaming with laughter! It is as much fun now as it was then!

Flinch Card Game
I stumbled onto Flinch while looking through the games for aChristmas gift for my daughter. I hadn't heard of or thought ofFlinch since I was a child, when I played it with friends. I was so excited! Our entire family has learned to play and we all love it - we've even taught Grandma and she's going to teach her friends. It's fun, challenging, takes a short while or longer, and is always different. We're all glad that I found Flinch after all these years!
