Description
Fast Flip is a high-speed game of recognition and reaction. Your objective is to be the first player to find the match between two cards.
Setup
Shuffle the cards together and place them face down in a pile (so you cannot see the side with all the different fruits printed on it).
Game 1: Flip It!
Fast Flip is played over a series of rounds. All players play simultaneously, racing to find a match.
Each Round
- When all players are ready, flip the top card of the pile and place it faceup next to the pile so that everyone can see the different fruits printed on it.
- Quickly compare the new faceup card with the card on top of the facedown pile.
- The first player to call out the correct answer scores the faceup card as one point.
- Get ready to start the next round.
Correct answers:
- a. If the facedown card shows a fruit, then you will race to determine how many times that fruit is printed on the faceup card. (Diagram labelled "Correct answer = 2".)
- b. If the facedown card shows a number, then you will race to find which fruit is printed that many times on the faceup card. (Diagram labelled "Correct answer = banana".)
Important
If you call out the wrong answer, you may not participate until the next round.
Game End
The game is over when there is only one card left in the deck. The player with the most cards scored wins the game!
Game 2: Token Grab
The following games play the same as the Game 1, with the following differences:
During set up, arrange the 10 tokens faceup in reach of all players. When you find the correct match, instead of calling out your answer, you must quickly grab the correct token.
When you claim a token, it is kept faceup in front of you within reach of all players. Scored tokens can be scored by other players on future rounds (assuming it is the correct match for that round). When one player has 4 tokens in front of them, the game ends immediately with that player as the winner.
Note: for a shorter game, you may wish to play to 2 or 3 tokens instead of 4 to win.
(Diagram: "Example of gameplay for Game 2", showing numbered tokens 1 to 5 around a facedown pile and a faceup card, with a "Correct answer" label.)
Game 3: Token Line
During set up, arrange the tokens in a row, in whatever order you wish. These tokens will determine which match you are looking for each turn (the backs of cards no longer decide). When a new card is flipped faceup, players will treat the left-most token as though it were on the back of the card (in the base game). Whoever first calls out the correctly matching symbol or number scores the token as 1 point. The player with the most tokens after all 10 turns have been played, wins the game.
