GAME INSTRUCTIONS

Ages: 6+

Players: 3-8

Object of Game

The first player to score one billion dollars wins the game.

Setup

Use only the number of industries to the number of players. For example, if there are only 5 players, use only the five highest value asset industry sets Technology, Energy, Finance, Media, and Entertainment. If there are six players then, six industry sets should be used and so on up to eight players. The wild cards (Taxman and Billionaire) are always played. Shuffle and deal all of the cards face down to each player. All players will have 9 cards with two players having 10 cards. The dealer rotates after each round.

Collecting

Each player should decide silently, which set of cards to collect (this may change during the game) and then trade surplus cards (ie. cards other than the industry that they have decided to collect).

Trading

The Dealer declares “Ready, Set, Swap” and trading commences. All players trade at the same time. Players trade surplus cards by holding the cards face down on the table shouting the number of cards they wish to exchange but THEY MUST ONLY TRADE CARDS OF THE SAME TYPE. Example: 2 Energy, 4 Technology, etc. The Taxman and Billionaire cards can be included as one of the cards in ANY group. Any number of cards from one upwards can be traded at any one time provided they are the same type or include wild cards. An exchange takes place when two players both declare equal number of cards to trade (ie. “two”, “two”). Trading MUST then take place. The faster you trade, the faster you win.
