“BLITZ!”
That is the shout of victory the moment you finish your deck of 10 cards in this fast paced card game called Dutch Blitz. This card game is addictive, highly entertaining, fun, and action packed.
I learned to play the game sometime in 2004, when my family was still residing in Bangkok, Thailand. Campus Crusade for Christ (CCC) missionaries taught me and my family how to play the Dutch Blitz card game.
Basically the objective of the game, which is played by four individuals, is to be the first to finish your Blitz deck of ten cards but at the same time be able to highest pointer of the game.
If you want to know how to play the game, watch this instructional video from the Youtube channel of Dutch Blitz:
According to the instructional video, the first to reach 75 points wins the game but for me and my friends we race to 100 points but sometimes we could race to 150 or 200 points.
This is what will happen when you and your friends know how to play Dutch Blitz:
Sometimes the game would end faster, depending on how fast the players play and the cards available.
Here are some of the things my friends have to say about the game:
Fast paced ang gameplay. Exciting. Challenging! Medyo educational?

2. Giving your opponent negative scores

I like playing the game because it’s challenging.
