Game Designer: Jennifer Nantz

Players: 2-5, must be able to play cards games like go fish.

Resources:  one standard 52-card deck.

Objective:  Have the smallest number of cards in your hand out of any player.

Setup:  Deal five cards to each player, then place the remaining cards face down in a draw pile.

Game Mechanics:  Starting with the ace, players lay down cards in ascending order. If a player doesn't have the next sequential card, they may ask another player for the needed card, like go fish. If the player who is asked does not have the card requested, the asking player must draw from the pile until they have the card, and then lay it down. Players stop laying down cards once a player lays a King. 

Outcome:  Players win by having the least amount of cards in their hand by the time the king has been placed.
