The Goal: Be the first to get rid of all your cards.

Basic Play:

• Match the top card by rank OR suit
• If you can't play, you must draw from the deck
• When you have one card left, you MUST declare "LAST CARD" before playing. Lasts for 2 turns then expires.
• If you don't declare Last Card and play your final card, you must pick up a penalty card!

Power Cards:

• 2: Next player picks up 2. Can be stacked. Can go on Black Jack.
• Black Jack (♣/♠): Next player picks up 5. Can stack on 2s. 2s can stack on it.
• Red Jack (♥/♦): Cancels any pickup stack. Ends turn.
• 8: Skips next player. If two players, you play again.
• King: Reverses play order. If two players, you play again. Cannot counter penalties.
• Ace: Plays on anything. You declare the new suit.
• Queen: Must be covered immediately with another card.
• Joker: Wild - becomes any card you declare (rank AND suit).

Combos & Runs:

• Rank Runs: Multiple cards of same rank (e.g. 9♥, 9♣, 9♠).
• Suited Runs: Sequential cards of same suit, ascending OR descending (e.g. 4♥, 5♥, 6♥ or 9♦, 8♦, 7♦).
