Description

Pick 1 is a card game in which you try to get rid of your hand cards as early as possible. Cards either show a number and one of three colors, or a penalty in one of the colors. In each turn, one card from the stack is flipped open. Each player simultaneously picks a matching card from their hand (matching means: same color or same number/penalty). All chosen cards are then revealed. The player who played the highest card in the same number as the open card gets all the penalties, which are either to draw cards from the stack or to steal a card from another player. When one player gets rid of all their cards, everyone gets points for the cards still left in their hand (number cards count their value, penalty cards count 10 points). When a player hits 100 points, whoever has least points, wins.
