Rules & How to Play

Continue until every player except one has cleared all cards. The player still holding cards is the unlucky player for that round.

At the start of a round, each player receives 3 face-down cards, 3 face-up cards above them, and 3 cards in hand.

Before play begins, each player may swap cards between the face-up set and hand once.

The player holding the lowest card starts: 1, or 2 if no one has 1, then the next number. Play passes to the player on the right.

Play a card whose value is equal to or higher than the pile card. Numeric values run from 1 through 13, and some values have special effects.

Take one replacement for each card played until your hand contains at least 3 cards while stock remains. If you already hold more than 3, take no replacement.

If you have matching cards, you may play them together.

If you have no card equal to or higher than the pile card, take the entire pile and play passes to the next player.

After the stock and your hand are gone, play from your face-up cards. If none is valid, take the entire pile.

After your face-up cards are gone, choose a face-down card at random. If it is not valid, take it and the entire pile into your hand. The other face-down cards remain until your hand is cleared.

Four cards of equal value burn the pile, even if they were not all played by the same person. The player who placed the fourth card plays again.

صفرها can be played on any card. The pile value becomes 0, and the next player may play any card.

5 أو أقل may be placed only on a lower number. The next player must then play a card valued 5 or less.

قب / Skip makes the next player miss a turn when played on a lower card. Each قب / Skip passes over one player; two played together pass over two players.

اعكسها changes the direction of play when placed on a lower number. With two players, its special effect does not apply and it counts only as 7.

احرق may be played on any card. Remove the entire pile from play, then the player who used it plays again.

شفاف may be played on any card without changing the active value. The next player must match or exceed the card beneath it. If شفاف is first on the pile, it counts as 9.

تحت فوق may be played on any card. Take the bottom card of the pile and move it to the top.

Choose a player to take the entire pile. شيل يا نحس is used once and then removed from play.
