How to Play
Four hidden cards. One quick look. Then trust your memory.
The full rules
Goal: finish with the fewest points across the match.
At the start of a round, each player gets 4 face-down cards. In rounds 1–3, choose two of your cards to look at once, then remember them when they turn face-down again. On your turn, draw from the deck, take the top discard and swap it with one of your cards, or call “Skrooz.”
When you draw from the deck, either swap that card with one of yours (your old card goes to the discard) or throw the drawn card straight onto the discard. A power activates only when you throw a drawn power card directly onto the discard. Swapping it into your hand or taking it from the discard does not activate it.
After someone calls “Skrooz,” every other player gets one final turn, then all cards are revealed. The lowest round total scores 0; everyone else scores the sum of their cards. If the caller is not lowest, add a 10-point penalty to their score.
Every power card is worth 10 points. Use them carefully, and remember: Mirror copies the last power card thrown before it. The app lists every power on its Rules screen.
Choose a quick match of 1 round or a full game of 4 rounds. The player with the lowest total score after the final round wins.
Your next table is waiting.
