In the Victorian era, offering flowers was not an innocuous act. The color and nature of the bouquet carried a message to the recipient, with very precise codes. Will you do well in this Tussie-Mussie?
With only 18 cards Tussie-Mussie offers a unique playing experience, just like Love Letter did in its time.
Now it's your turn to draw 2 cards and choose one card to play face up and the other face down. The recipient is free to choose between the exposed or hidden card. As for you, you keep the one he didn't want. In a clockwise direction each player proceeds in the same way, until each player has 4 cards in front of him.
Once the end of the game is reached, the points are counted. Each flower card is worth a number of points depending on the number of hearts it displays, as well as the special rule for that card, which is specific to each of the 18 different cards.
The player with the most points wins.
An easy to carry game, explained in less than a minute and very poetic!
