Of a kind burns the pile

How a round works

Easy to learn. Brutal to lose.

Everyone races to get rid of their cards. The pile only goes up, so every play is a question: spend a high card now, or keep it for later?

  1. 01

    Set up your table

    You get nine cards: three face down, three face up on top of them, and three in your hand. Before the first play, swap your strongest cards onto the table.

  2. 02

    Beat the pile

    Play a card equal to or higher than the top of the pile, or several of the same rank at once. Your hand refills to three from the deck. Can’t beat it? Pick the whole pile up.

  3. 03

    Clear the table

    With your hand and the deck empty, play your face-up cards, then gamble on the face-down ones, played blind. A blind card that can’t beat the pile goes into your hand, along with the pile.

  4. KARMA!

    04

    Don’t be last

    Players drop out as they shed their last card. Whoever is left holding cards at the end gets the karma.

Three plays change everything.
