How To Play - WIG OUT! CARD GAME RULES
Object
Get rid of all the cards in your hand and be the first player to
yell, "Wig Out!" The player with the lowest score wins.
Set Up
Get a paper and pencil handy for score keeping. Choose a
player to be the dealer. The dealer shuffles the deck and deals
cards face down to players accordingly:
2 - 4 Players
7 Cards
5 - 6 Players 5 Cards
Players may look at
and organize their cards. Stack the unused cards face down in the
middle of the playing area. Turn over the top two cards and place
them face up on opposite sides of the deck. (If they are the same
image, stack one on top of the other.)
Game Play
Wig Out is a race that is played out over five rounds. There
are no taking turns during the rounds. All players simultaneously
draw and play cards as fast as they can until someone plays all his or
her cards and yells, "Wig Out!"
When everyone is
ready, the dealer says, "Go!" At this point, each player may do
one of three things:
-
Start a new pile by
playing two or more matching cards from your hand face up in the middle
of the playing area.
-
Lay a single card
from your hand face up on any pile that it matches.
-
If you can't play
cards, you must draw cards from the center deck and add them to you hand
until you can make a match.
Ending A Round
As soon as you are out of cards, shout "Wig Out!" This
immediately stops the round. All players left with cards in their
hands collect one point per card. (Be sure to write down your
score.) The player to the left of the last dealer collects,
shuffles and deals cards for the next round.
End of the Game
At the end of the fifth round, all players count up their scores.
Whoever has the lowest score wins. (For a longer game, choose a
higher number of rounds to play before starting.)
Note: On the rare chance that all players end up holding
one card that can't be matched, the round ends in a tie. No points
are scored and all cards are collected to start a new round. |
