This fun, fast-moving game helps players develop a nimble mind and a keen eye for spotting and tracking visual similarities and differences. The goal in each round is to form the highest scoring 3-card combination consisting of any 2 cards from your hand and any one of the face-up cards on the table. Each card contains 4 characteristics (Species, Activity, Color and Scenery) and one point is earned for every characteristic that is either shared by all 3 cards in a hand OR that is completely different on all 3 cards. Let's say the species on all 3 cards is different: Human, Elephant and Martian. That's worth one point! If another characteristic, say color, on those same 3 cards is identical, that adds another point, and so on. The highest scorer wins all the chits that were anted at the round's outset. A hand that scores 4 points is known as a Weirdo Lunch, a masterstroke that also earns that player the right to steal chits from any opponent's stash using the attack dice. Alternatively, if your cards look particularly bleak, you might try to play a hand worth zero (difficult), in effect triggering a do-over round but with higher stakes! Includes 81 Cards, 5 Player Markers, 2 Custom Dice and 30 Chits.
