One of my favorite trick-taking games is Bottle Imp. It’s based on the story of a demon's bottle that grants any wish but brings great misfortune upon death. To avoid this curse, you must sell the bottle for a price lower than what you paid. Inspired by Stevenson’s novel, known for "Treasure Island" and "Jekyll and Hyde," this game beautifully translates that story into a card game masterpiece.

A new edition was released this year. If you haven't played it yet, you should definitely give it a try. It's easy to win tricks by playing a card with a number lower than the current bottle price... but as you play, you'll realize that despite having only 36 cards, it's an incredibly deep game!
