Hard Origami Game

How to play

When playing for the first time, remove the protective film from the mirror.

1. Each player holds a sheet of origami paper.
2. Take out three pattern cards at random and place them in the center of the table.
3. All players start folding at the same time, aiming at the pattern on the pattern card.
   • You can fold to match any of the three pattern cards.
   • The pattern must be completed through three origami folding steps. (You can try to fold it as many times as you want to think about it.)
   • Origami has auxiliary lines which can fold vertically, horizontally, and diagonally.
4. When you finish, shout out loud: "Easy peasy!"
   • Fold three times, then check with the mirror. (The printed sheet shows the mirror at a 90° angle.)
5. Everyone stops folding, and the folded paper of the declarer is held up to a mirror to check if the pattern matches the pattern card.
   • If it matches, the player who declared it wins.
   • If not, restart the game.

The printed example shows: origami paper and pattern card; Step.1, Step.2 and Step.3 folding diagrams; and "check with the mirror".

How to use the Assist Card

Players can choose whether to use the assist card, which can cover three-fourths of the pattern card. This reveals the correct pattern that should appear when the paper is properly folded after three steps.

Note: Align the assist card with the dashed lines on the pattern card to reveal the correct information.
