Rock Paper Scissors: The Card Game (2004)

About this game

From the back of the box: "Here's a fast & fun CARD VERSION of the game kids have played for generations. Each player lays down a card. If your card beats your opponent's card, you take it. When all cards have been played, the player who has collected the most cards wins the game!" The game consists of 54 cards. Each player starts with a hand of five cards and draws a card each time a card is played. So your choice (Rock, Paper or Scissors) is limited to the cards you have in hand.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 4 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
