Hipster: The Card Game - Strategies

[Sprocketsdance]

Hello! Welcome to the strategy thread. This is where we will post little tricks that can be played during the game as we discover them. I know right now there are only a handful of people with access to the beta test deck so this might be a little early. Since we did just reached our goal on the Kickstarter it just seems like a good time to prepare for massive amounts of game play before everyone has their decks. It's good to be prepared!

One very useful strategy, is when you have duplicate cards and basically want to discard two cards. The rules state you can only discard one card per turn. If you have one card in your hand that matches a card you have in front of you (on your board - and the board is full), you can replace the card on the board with the same card in your hand. Then, you can just discard like normal. This essentially lets you discard twice and is a good way to get rid of duplicates.

Of course, if you have duplicates you can also play multiple copies of a card in front of you to try and kill it from the center faster. Quick and very dirty.
