Description

Edit Edit

A fast-paced, family oriented, action card game played with a specially printed deck. The game was created by Werner Ernst George Muller, a German immigrant from Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The game is very popular among the Pennsylvania Amish and Dutch community, and among Christian groups in the United States and Canada (primarily in Mennonite communities). The game is similar to Nertz, but Nertz is played with four standard playing decks, while Dutch Blitz must be played with specialized decks.

It is an alternate version of the game Ligretto, manufactured in Germany.

How To

Things To Do Before

Clear an area big enough for you and your friends to play. Have a pen and paper ready if you want to keep track of who wins.

Tips

Players can also play from the Blitz Pile onto a Post Pile and from one Post Pile onto another only if the numbers decrease in order and the boys and girls alternate.
