Snorkeling

There’s nothing like SNORKELING to discover the wonders of the ocean. Stay underwater as long as possible to swim among Coral, Turtles, Lanternfish… But the other divers only want one thing: to enjoy the beauty all for themselves and force you back to the surface!

Snorkeling is a card-shedding game where players play cards onto others to score the most points.

On your turn, you may play a card that is exactly one value higher than the top card on the center pile. Alternatively, you can play one or more cards that match the color of the top card on the center pile, regardless of their value.

After playing cards to the center pile, you may then play exactly one card onto any other player’s personal pile if your card’s value is exactly one less than the top card on their pile. The color does not matter for this step.

The round ends immediately when any player receives a value 0 card on their personal pile. At that point, each player scores points equal to the value of the top card in their pile, which are added to their previous total. The first player to reach or exceed 6 points wins the game. If there is a tie, another round is played.
