Basics
The game consists of four decks of 40 cards each, and can be played by two, three or four persons. Each of the four decks has a different design: pump, carriage, pail and plow.
Each player chooses one of these deck designs and keeps it for the duration of the game, regardless of the number of hands played. The faces of these decorative cards are printed in red, blue, yellow and green. The red and blue cards carry a Pennsylvania Dutch Boy illustration. The yellow and green cards carry a Pennsylvania Dutch girl illustration.
Each player builds three basic groups of cards in front of him from which he will play the game. The groups of cards placed in position are referred to as the Post, Blitz and Wood piles. The objective of the game is to accumulate points by building as many cards in sequence, 1 through 10, in the same respective colors in the center Dutch Piles using as many cards as possible from Blitz Pile. The first player to exhaust his Blitz Pile has "Blitzed" his opponents and ended the hand.
Cards for placement in the Dutch Piles can also be drawn from a player's Post and Wood piles. Several hands must be played until a total of 75 points is accumulated by any one player, who then wins the game.
Speed is essential in winning since everyone plays at the same time! Dutch Blitz is a fast-moving, exciting game for everyone.
Can I play with more than 4 players?
Yes! If you buy the Green pack you can also purchase either the Blue Expansion Pack or the new Purple Expansion Pack. If you buy both, you can play with up to 12. Insane!
You can play with the Blue deck — just like Classic Green — with up to 4 players OR combine the two packs to play with 5, 6, 7, or 8 players. If you buy the Purple deck too, you can play with 9, 10, 11, or 12. Outta control!
So, what makes the Blue deck different? It’s simply a reinvention of the Classic Green boxed game that you know and love, with the colors of the 4 decks’ designs (carriage, bucket, pump and plow) switched to enable more players.
