If you have a pair in your hand, discard it onto the table to reduce the cards in your hand. The last person left with cards in their hand loses. It is a very easy game, so anyone can have fun playing it.

Rules

How the game works

Once the cards are dealt, discard any pairs of the same number.

When it is your turn, take one card from the hand of the player to your right. If you have a pair in your hand, discard those cards.

Next, the player to your left takes one card from your hand.

Continue this process. Players who run out of cards are eliminated. The player that remains until the end loses.

Scoring system

Points are assigned as follows in the order that players are eliminated from the game.

1st place +4
2nd place +2
3rd place +1
4th place (if there are 5 players) 0
Last place -3

How to operate

On your turn, the hand of the player to your right moves to the center. Select a card from that hand. Everything else is processed automatically.
