Rules of the Game (silent play)
Team Goal: Match all nine cards in your team’s hand to claim an organ. Ring the bell! Place your organ on the board.
System Goal: Be one of the first three teams within one system to have claimed an organ.
Trade 1–4 cards with another team. Traded cards must be the same suit (all Br, all S, all M, all H, all V, or all Bl) and the same in number (1, 2, 3, or 4 cards).
To trade two cards, for example, pull out two cards and use the other hand to gesture “Two” then look for someone also looking to trade two cards. Keep your fingers up as you exchange the cards, face down, WITHOUT showing the cards until they have changed hands.
Collect all nine matching cards in a suit (one organ). When you do, ring the bell and place your organ on the board.
