60 round cards, 1 category explanation card
Aim of the Game
To be the player with the most cards at the end of the game.
Setup
Place the deck of cards in the centre of the table, category side up.
Playing the Game
Each player, in his/her turn, flips the top card from the deck and places it next to the deck, letters side up.
Each of the 3 letters appears in a different colour. Only one of them matches in colour the category card revealed on the top of the deck.
Players compete to win the flipped card by finding a word that begins with the matching letter and is compatible to the category.
The first player to call out such a word wins the round and gets the card. If no player finds a matching word, turn over another card.
Then, whoever finds a word with the new card wins that card and the one before. The game moves on to the next player, who flips the next card, and so on, until there is only one card left in the deck.
Example: Category: City. Matching colour: Green. Matching letter: "A". Valid answers: Athens, Amsterdam, Amman.
Winning
The winner is the player who has collected the most cards when only one card is left in the deck. This card is not counted.
