Starting the Game
- Each player places the top card of their deck face up onto opposite ends of the couch.
- If the numbers are the same, repeat this step until they are different. The player with the highest numbered card goes first.
Placing Skeletons
Skeletons can be placed on a couch seat based on ONE of the following two
rules:
- A player can place a skeleton if it has a number one higher than that skeleton. For example, a 4 can be placed on top of a 3.
- A player can place a skeleton beside another skeleton (in a
seat directly to the left or right of it) if it has a number one higher or one lower than that skeleton. For example, a 5 can be placed beside a 6 or beside a 4.
Additional Notes
- Skeletons can be placed on any couch seat, regardless of color.
- When placing a skeleton beside another skeleton, the number below it is irrelevant.
- Each player maintains a separate discard pile.
- If a player runs out of cards, their discard pile becomes their deck and they keep playing.
- Consider playing a Best of 5 or Best of 7 for longer games.
