Cheat!

A game of Cheat! in the Neopedia article "Little Timmy".

Are you tired of those goody two shoes games where honesty and fair play are the aim of the game? Don't you just once wish you could cheat and get away with it? Well, now you can. Use all of your skill and cunning to beat your opponents in a breath taking game of Cheat! If you beat the 3rd, 5th or 7th rounds, you also earn a trophy!

It only costs 50 NP per play. So what are you waiting for? Get Cheating!

How to play

• To win a round, you have to get rid of all the cards in your hand. Once you beat a round, you can continue to the next highest difficulty.
• On your turn, you can play 1 to 4 cards of the same value. Pick the cards you want to play by clicking on them; then you have to select what you want to tell the other players. It's okay to cheat!
• If someone guesses that you're cheating, you have to take all the cards from the pile and add them to your hand.
• When the computer players take a turn, you can accuse them of cheating (if you think they are!) or you can let them get away with it. If you accuse them and you're wrong, you have to take the pile! But if you're right, then THEY have to take the pile, and you get some Neopoints for catching them!

Hints

• When you have cards of the number that should be played, play them all. Don't hold back.
• Don't claim to have four of a kind when you don't. Someone will have that other suit or will have just placed it in the pile, so you're likely to be caught.
• Similarly, you know there are only 4 of each number card (one in each suit). So, if another player puts down more than the player could have, that player is cheating. For instance, if another player puts down "3 7s", and you have 2 7s, you know that player is cheating. You should accuse them.

Your Opponents

	Capara the Kyrii	Capara uses all her feminine wiles and amazing intelligence to trick her way to the top, however it hasn't worked yet... she is a hopeless cheater and nearly always loses.
	Little Timmy the Tuskaninny	Timmy is very young and inexperienced. He started playing cheat as he thought it would make him look cool... however he is pretty useless at it, to be honest.
	Branston the Eyrie	Branston is the lord of the dance floor, and when he isn't strutting his stuff, he loves to gamble. Self-obsessed and egotistical, Branston's mind tends to wander, so he isn't the best player in the world. He has been known to throw down his cards and leave in a huff in the middle of a game.
	Chuffer Bob the Meerca	Chuffer is a good player, but his voracious appetite often gets the better of him. When he is hungry he can't concentrate, and this leads him to fidget. People like to play against Chuffer Bob because it's easy to know when he is cheating!
	Brucey B	Brucey B is a Bingo caller by nature, but in his nights off he likes to play the odd game of Cheat. Still learning, but by no means a beginner, Brucey will catch you out with the old triple-bluff maneuver. He also tends to hide his cards under the table, so you will not know he has won until the last minute!
	Kalora the Kau	Kalora is on holiday, and has decided to take in a few games of Cheat to earn some money. She considers herself an above-average player, and she knows when to quit! Her left ear sometimes twitches when she is cheating... but then again, you never can tell!
	Princess Fernypoo	Young and spoilt, Princess Fernypoo is not accustomed to losing. Back in her father's castle, anybody who beat her at any game would soon be thrown in the moat. Now the young Acara has left home and does not have her father to protect her any more.
	Agent 00 Hog	Cool, suave, and sophisticated, Agent 00 Hog has nerves of steel, and the ability to hide even the most blatant of cheats beneath a stern poker face. The ladies love him, and he is nearly unbeatable at whatever he chooses to play... do you accept the challenge?
	Spectre	The self-appointed, undisputed ruler of cheat. When his red eyes are staring at you, you can just feel them scanning your every movement... watching every move in your face. If you cheat, he will know, there is no doubt about that. Spectre is a Neopian millionaire, and only ventures out of his mansion when inexperienced players are up for a fleecing.

Trivia

• The game is exactly like the real-world game BS, which is considered a vulgar game to some because of it's title, and is referred to as "I doubt it", "Peanut Butter", and other such tamer titles instead.
• There are 6 Books which can be bought in Neopets featuring the stories of players and their experience with Cheat!.
• The Petpet Pinklet is said to give a Neopet advice on how to cheat at every card game, yet it is not mentioned at all in reference to the game Cheat!.
• Brucey B and the Lucky Coin, the plot with the discovery of the Lost Desert, starred characters from Cheat!, and the game of Cheat! played a large role in the plot.
