HOW TO PLAY
1

Deal four cards to each player and place four cards face up on the table to start.

2

On your turn, play one card from your hand and use it to capture any face-up table card, or combination of table cards, whose values add up to match it.

3

If you cannot make a capture, your played card simply stays face up on the table for a future capture by anyone.

4

Clearing every card off the table with a single capture is called going xeri, and earns a bonus that is recorded for scoring at the end of the hand.

5

Continue dealing out fresh hands from the deck once everyone's cards are used, until the whole deck has been played.

6

Add up the value of all captured cards for each player, including xeri bonuses, and whoever has the highest total wins the round.
