About Color Cards

Sit down with Ava, Kyle and Leo and try to be the first to run out of cards. Play a card that matches the colour or the number on top, and watch out for Skip, Reverse, Draw Two and the Wild cards. Early tables are gentle and give you a head start. Later ones add house rules like stacking Draw Twos and swapping hands with a 7, and the other players start counting cards. Forget to say Last card and you only take two extra cards. Twelve tables to climb, and your progress is saved.
