📖 About This Game

Genius Rules is played with a deck of cards depicting historical thinkers categorized as thinkers, artists and leaders. For each game there is a "secret rule" known only to the moderator. The other players attempt to position the cards in accordance with their best guess of the "secret rule" that governs the pattern of placement.
