Overview

Empty your hand the fastest, by playing cards higher than odds, lower than evens, and cards which are the reverse of what the active number is


Turn

On a turn, you must try to play a card on top of what came before

If the current card is odd (+), then you must play a higher card

If the current card is even (-), then you must play a lower card

If you cannot meet this requirement, then you have to draw a card

If you play a card in the 11s, 11, 22, 33, 44 and so on, you get another go straight away

If your last played card is the next card you see, i.e. no one else could play, you can play any card ignoring odd or even rules

You can interrupt out of turn by playing a mirror of what is displayed, this is the numbers in reverse e.g. 57 can be interrupted with 75, units and whole tens are mirrors of each other e.g. 02 vs 20

If you successfully play a mirror, either discard a card of your choice (not to the play area, out of the game) or cause everyone else to draw a card

If you play an invalid card, either normally or the wrong mirror, you take it back and draw a card as penalty


Round End

The round ends when a player empties their hand

Every other player scores 1 point for cards remaining in hand, and 2 points for a card of the 11s in hand

Then the cards are shuffled and a new round starts


Game Ends

Once a player meets or exceeds 25 points, the player with the lowest score wins!
