Cabo is a 2010 card game by Melissa Limes and Mandy Henning that involves memory and manipulation and is based on the classic card game Golf, being also similar to Rat-a-Tat Cat from 1995. It uses a dedicated deck in which each suit is numbered from 0 to 13, and certain numbers are marked Peek, Spy or Swap. The objective is for each player to minimize the sum of their own cards, four of which are placed face down on the table at the start of a round, and face-down cards may be revealed and swapped by card effects. Cabo combines elements of shedding and matching card games, and it can also be played with a standard playing card deck under names including Cambio, Pablo and Cactus.
