Sixteen is an original 2-player card game, published by Alpine Games, and designed for players ages 8 and older. According to Major Fun, the game includes a good balance of strategy and luck, it is easy to learn, and takes approximately 15 minutes to play.

Rules and Gameplay
The Sixteen game deck contains 54 custom cards of 4 different suits, numbered 0-6 (two wild cards are also included). To begin, three cards are dealt to each player, and the remaining cards are then placed face fown forming a shared draw pile. Players alternate playing cards onto a shared face-up play pile, which becomes the set that the players are trying to win. A set is formed when the sum of the cards in the play pile equals or exceeds 16. If the sum equals 16, then the player who played the final card wins the set. If the sum exceeds 16 (a bust), then the player who did not play the final card wins the set. A set is also formed when three cards of the same number or suit are played in a row. The player who wins the most set wins the round. More play details and variations are given in the instructions.
