Bacon is a fixed-partnerships climbing game for 4 or 6 players that is all about going out early as a team. The only team that will score is the team that goes out first, but their score will depend on when the rest of the team goes out. If your team does NOT go out first, your job is simple: make the other team go out as late as possible.

The rules also include the Applewood variant for 3 to 6 players: this is the no-partnerships version of Bacon. There are no teams; it’s every person for themselves. Your score will depend solely on the position you go out so go out early.

Scarlett ★★★★★

We just got our group of four to try this, and the way only the first team to go out scores really changed our whole strategy. It forced us to communicate constantly to avoid overshooting our partner's hand. Makes for a tense and satisfying finish every round.

Andrew ★★★★★

Played this with six people and the fixed-partnership rule completely changes how you read the table. Knowing only the first team out scores makes every bid feel tense, and I love that you can't just switch partners mid-game.

Joseph ★★★★★

The whole table groans when a team goes out early and everyone else gets zero — that brutal scoring twist is what keeps us coming back. Works best with exactly 6 players in my experience, since the fixed partnerships make the shouting matches way more fun.
