Week 6: Atari Golden Age Card Game - Paperboy The Card Game

Name of the Game: Paperboy - The Card Game

Number of Players: 3 - 4

Object of the Game: The player with the most pairs at the end of the game wins.

Setup:

1. The deck is shuffled.
2. Each player is given four cards.
3. The rest of the deck is set aside, and a dealer must be chosen.
4. The dealer will place 4 cards in the center of the deck and keep track of rounds.

How to Play:

1. Four cards from the deck are placed face up in the center of the table.
2. Once all the cards have been placed, players can begin picking up cards when the dealer says go.
• A player must put down a card to pick up another.
• After ten seconds the cards are removed and placed in a trash deck on the side.
3. Once a player has 4 cards that are of a set (the sets are specified below), they can claim that set by showing their cards to the other players after a round of cards has been placed. They set this set aside in their own deck, and the dealer deals that player 4 new cards.
4. If a player has the trump card (which is the bike with an explosion behind it) they can use that card when another player claims a set and the targeted player will not receive any points and his/her cards are placed in the trash deck.
