1 Deal the cards and hold them face up so you can only see the top card.
2 The first player picks their strongest category from the top card and reads it out to the group (e.g. Significance 85).
3 Whoever has the highest number in that category wins all the top cards (these should go to the bottom of their pile).
4 The first person to win all the cards is the winner.
REMEMBER If two or more cards share the top number, put all cards in the middle and try another card. The winner of this hand wins all the cards in the middle too!
