Set Up: Shuffle the Wizard Cards and decide who will be the dealer for the first round (for example let the youngest or oldest wizard deal first). After each round the deal passes to the left.
Play:
- The dealer deals 7 cards to each player. The dealer places the remaining cards face down in the center of the table to form a draw deck. They then take the top card and turn it face up to start the discard pile. If the card they turn face up is a Wizard they return the Wizard to the middle of the deck and turn over the next top card.
- Each player looks at his own cards without showing the cards to anyone else.
- The player to the left of the dealer goes first. They must do one of the following three options: 1) Play a card on the discard pile that is either the same suit or the same value as the one on the discard pile. 2) Play a Wizard (which has magic powers and can turn the discard stack to any suit the player desires). Afterwards, the next player must play the selected suit or a wizard. 3) If the player cannot find a card to play from their hand onto the discard pile, they must draw cards from the draw deck until they draw one they can play. This continues until they find a card to play or they draw 7 cards. If they draw 7 cards and can still not play, they skip their play and play moves to the next player.
- Once a player gets rid of all their cards the round is over. At this time, each player adds up the score of all the cards remaining in their hand. The scores for each card are as follows:
- Players continue to play rounds with the dealer changing each round to the player to the left of the previous dealer.
- The game ends when at least one player has a score over 100.
Winning:
The player with the lowest score at the end of the game is the winner.
