📖 About This Game

In Ciao! you want to say goodbye to the cards in your hand as quickly as possible. Each player starts with a hand of seven cards; cards show either rock, paper or scissors, and they are colored either green, yellow or red. Some cards have special icons on them, such as play again or draw three cards. Cards are ranked in typical RPS order, but red beats yellow, which beats green. On a turn, you play a card to the discard pile that beats the card showing on top, whether by playing paper on rock or by playing a higher ranked paper than what's already there. If you can't play, you draw one card, then play that card if possible. The first player to empty their hand wins!
