Sixteen®
MSRP: $6.99

  NEW!!  Updated instructions, including 4-player rules, in English, French, German, and Spanish (see links below)

The multiple award-winning card game Sixteen is packed with head-to-head action. If you can you count to 16 and take calculated risks, then you can force your opponent to bust. But play your cards defensively at the right time or the tables will turn! Win the most sets and you'll win the game. It sounds simple (and it is), but Sixteen's unique strategy and cribbage-like counting will hold the attention of even the most seasoned game players.

Sixteen won Dr. Toy's 2007 Best Products Award, Major Fun's Family Award, the NAPPA Honors Award, and Creative Child Magazine's 2007 Seal of Excellence Award. Sixteen was also featured in the New Toys/Releases sections of TDmonthly (July '07) and Knucklebones magazine (September '07), and earned a 5 star review in TDMonthly (January '08).

Testimonials

"I highly recommend Sixteen. It says it’s for ages 8 and up, but we played with a 5-year-old and 63-year-old. It is fun, strategic and provides practice in addition. Sixteen is perfect for a quick game."
(Dr. Wright, TDMonthly)


"If you enjoy card games, and ones that can make you think twice here and there, you will enjoy Sixteen...It is very inexpensive and worth twice the asking price in play quality." (Family Review Center)

"My daughter had friends over this afternoon and you should have heard them yelling 'sixteen'…  Wish I had thought of it.  Super concept, excellent!!!  I can’t say enough good things about it.  It is helping her learn to strategize and keeping her math skills strong at the same time.  The best part is she doesn’t even realize it because she is having so much fun." (Cheryl, MA)


"We played Sixteen tonight and couldn't stop.  It was really fun.  Both kids are hooked, and me too.  It's so simple and so quick, it would be great for kids on the bus, at swim meets, in the car on trips, etc." (Michelle, CO)

“A creative new card game! I liked that it combined a good amount of strategy with the luck.” (Steve, AZ)

"We sure enjoyed playing your new card game, Sixteen. I want 4 decks. I think the grand kids will love it, and our old group of friends, too. It is fun and it moved fast." (Sherryl, MN)

"The instructions were very easy to follow. We didn't have any trouble figuring out how to play." (Claudia, AZ)

"Sixteen is a great game for cognitive and math skills development--great tool for my classroom or just for fun with family and friends." (Lynn, MN)

"We enjoyed Sixteen very much!!" (Tom, OH)
