Don’t Swallow Me!

This co-design with Jon Gilmour is an impulse card game for 3-6 players that plays in 10-20 minutes. It has the rules weight of Uno and is much shorter.

Each turn, you’ll try to play a card from your hand to Swallow cards played by other players. You may either play a card with a higher number in a different suit to Swallow cards OR any number card in the same suit to School with other cards. At the end of the game, every card you Swallow or successfully School will be worth 1 point each, and every Whale Certificate you get from getting rid of all your cards will be worth 3 points. Whoever has the most points at the end wins.
