The Strategy Card Game Where Spiting is part of the fun for family and friends
Setup: The game is for 2-5 players, ages 7 and older. Every player starts with 15(fifteen) cards, and they are dealt, for every player, 4 cards face down (Figure 1) and 4 cards face up (Figure 2) on a table and seven cards face down which goes to hand. See below for more detail. The rest of the cards are placed in a Draw Pile face down. Next to the draw pile a numbered card, value of 7 or lower, must be placed as the beginning of the Discard Pile. This card, which is randomly drawn from the draw pile, should be placed as the beginning of the Discard Pile. Cards not meeting the requirements should be replaced within the draw pile and the game of SPITE begins!
A Quick Review of the Game SPITE
The purpose of the game is to be the first player to get rid of all the cards dealt to him or her. This can be achieved by the strategic placing of cards in your possession and at the same time trying to prevent or SPITE other players from doing the same.
The main rule of this game is that you can only place the same number, or any higher number, card on the displaying top card on the Discard Pile. The only way a player can place a lower card on a high number card is by using a card that has the value of RESET. These Value cards are RESET, REPLAY and SPITE.
The SPITE ALL card, of which there is only 1 in a deck of cards, does not reset the number on the discard pile. Strategically this card is better being kept at hand for immediate playing should the need arise.
Each card will be explained, in detail, later in the rules.
