“Card Game the Kinda Tests Your Memory”

What You’ll Need:
Deck of Cards (1)
Red Token (2)
Green Token (2)
Two players

Preparing the Game:
1. Shuffle the deck.
2. Both players are dealt 5 cards face down, in a row (you may not switch the cards around after being dealt).
3. Both players are given 1 red token and 1 green token.
4. Rest of the deck of cards is placed off to the side.

The Goal:
By the end of the game, have a higher “Poker Hand” than your opponent.

Let’s Get Started:

1. Both players are always able to look at their respective hand.
2. Both players get one move per turn.  You can do one of the following:
   1. Switch one of your cards with one of your opponent’s cards
   2. Use a red token to remove one of your opponent’s cards from play (they then draw a card from the deck to replace it).
      1. You may only use this token once.
   3. Use a green token to shuffle your hand.
      1. You may only use this token once.
3. Each player gets 3 turns.
4. After the 3 turns are done, reveal your hands.
5. The player with the higher “poker hand” wins.
