Description

Start each round with all your points - play your cards right and you might get to keep some of them. Part strategy, part luck, but all fun!


At the beginning of each round, players start with a pile of tokens (their points). As cards are played, players lose tokens based on the value of the card played. If the card played matches either the color or number of the previous card played, the player will lose less tokens, and if they match both, they will gain tokens! If a player has a U-Turn card and is able to play it, the turn order reverses. (Think Uno Reverse card.)

At the end of the round, the number of tokens a player has left is their score. But, if a player finishes the round with a penalty or bonus card in their hand they will lose or gain points.

Penalty/Bonus Cards:

  • U-Turn: 2 point penalty
  • Black 6: 6 point penalty
  • Gold 0: 6 point bonus
  • Both Gold 0 AND Black 6: 10 point bonus!

The player with the most points at the end of 6 rounds wins!
