20140232066 | Melding Card Game and Method of Play - A melding card game and method of play includes 114 numbered, face, ace, mulligan, joker, and wild cards. A round is played in which nine layout cards are dealt face-down to players and arranged in a grid. Each player turns at least one layout card face up and takes a turn. In the turn, each player draws a drawn card from a discard or draw pile and plays or discards the drawn card. If the player plays the drawn card, the player replaces a layout card with the drawn card. The players play one additional turn after an ender player turns all of their respective cards face up. A score for each player is then determined. A penalty is assigned to the ender player if another player has a lower score. Nine rounds are played. The player with the lowest total score is declared the winner. | 08-21-2014 |
