Schwupps

In Schwupps, you want to rid yourself of cards before anyone else, but sometimes you might find it difficult to dump cards from your hand — even with four discard piles in play! Each player in Schwupps starts with a deck of face-down cards and four cards in hand. Four discard piles are started on the table with a card in each pile, and next to each pile is a rule dictating which card(s) may be discarded on this pile, e.g., cards of the same color or cards exactly two higher than the current top card of the discard pile. If possible, a player can lay down all four cards in hand, and what can hopefully help you (and pain others) are trouble cards that move the rule cards in play and introduce a new rule at the same time. Whoever first rids themselves of cards wins!
