REDEMPTION
SECRET "CHEAT" CODES
When playing
Redemption with partners, it is often helpful to let each other know what
cards you have in your hand, without letting your opponents know.
These particular codes have been used here in southern California,
particularly in the ARC (Arroyo Redemption Club, Arroyo High School, El
Monte, CA).
| Card Title |
Secret Codes |
Typical uses |
| Son of God |
"son of Bob" OR blink one
eye |
To find out if your partner has Son
of God, ask your opponent, "Have you met the son of
Bob?" To let a partner know that you have Son of God,
blink one eye. |
| New Jerusalem |
"New Jersey" |
"Nationals is going to be near
New Jersey." |
| Both Son of God and New
Jerusalem |
"blink squadron" OR blink
both eyes |
"Have you seen the blink
squadron?" OR blink both eyes |

AOL or "Bigger than the
World" |
"Have you logged on
recently?" OR "Wow, did you see that really big guy
today?" |
| Christian

the card, roll your eyes and sarcastically say, "this is great" |
| King of
Tyrus |

"king" |

after drawing
the card, look at the card with a puzzled expression, then say (in
Spanish), "Que confusion!" |
| Devourer |

bite of something |
| Hunger |

"My
stomach is growling." |
| Wrath of

These can give you
an idea of what you can do. It is fun to try to know what is in your
partner's hand without your opponents knowing. As long as everyone
agrees this is acceptable, it adds an interesting twist to the game.
If you have any other
secret "cheat" codes you would like to pass along, please do so.
I may post them here.
