Overview

The aim is to be the first to empty your pay-off pile (labelled Goal Deck)

Turn

First, play as many cards as you wish to the central play piles

Finally, play a single card to one of your 4 side piles to end your turn (You cannot play a pay-off card to this area). The side piles can be in any order, but you can only use cards in this area from the top of each pile

Play Piles

The piles aren't suit based, but have to be played from Ace, then 2, and sequentially upwards to Queen, with King being a wild

You can play an Ace to an empty pile, or any other card to a pre-existing pile

Bonuses

If you play all 5 hand cards in a single turn, take 5 more cards from the stock and keep going

If you complete a play pile with a Queen (or a King acting as a Queen), shuffle the pile into the stock (creating space for a new pile) and take another go
