Cranium Jam Pack Jam

Cranium Jam Pack Jam Rulebook

Table of Contents

Get the most points by successfully packing objects in the trunk of the car.

Set out the car, objects, cards, score pad, and pencil.
Shuffle the cards and deal six to each player.
Stack the remaining cards nearby. Turn over the top card and lay it face up. This is the Group Jam card for the first round — every player uses this card on their turn. If the Group Jam card is wild, place it at the bottom of the stack and draw again.
When you're ready, flip the switch on the bottom of the car to turn it on.
The player whose birthday is coming up next goes first.

On your turn, look at your cards and the Group Jam card, and decide how many objects you can pack.
- You must pack at least four objects, including what's on the Group Jam card.
- If you have more than one card of the same object, you can use only one of these cards.
- If you have a wild card, pack any piece you want. You can use as many wild cards as you wish.
Let everyone know how many objects you plan to pack. Gather the objects, press the button on the hood to start the timer, and get packing!
Did you pack all the objects before time ran out?
- Yes! Write the number of objects you packed on the scorecard.
- No. Get rid of one of your cards and try packing the trunk again with one fewer object. Reset the trunk by pushing the orange piece forward. Press the button to start the timer.
Get to know the Jam Pack Jam objects by comparing them to their companion cards.
Once you've packed your objects successfully, remove them from the trunk. Now it's the next player's turn.
After each player has had a turn, the round is complete. To start a new round, shuffle all the cards, deal six cards to each player, and draw a new Group Jam card.

The player with the highest score after four rounds wins!
