Description
Players compete for high score by forming words, only in this version there are bridge aspects such as bidding and trick-taking. Tiles have suits on them. A Yahtzee-style scoring notepad is included, which contains boxes to fill out for contracts, declarations, trick scores and word scores. All in all, Upper Hand is a strange meld of Scrabble and Bridge, a combination which proved to be unsuccessful sales-wise.
