📖 About This Game

"All’s fair in love and war", and you are in both! The mission is to make a successful marriage proposal, but to do so you must overcome every opposition along the way. Good luck with your fight for true love! - From the manual In Love and War is a rummy-style card game for 2-5 players. Each turn players draw a card and discard a card representing romantic acts, aiming to fill their hand with two sets of three and one pair. If another player discards a card that completes your set, you may interject "Meow!" to interrupt the normal turn order and steal it. When you finish all three sets, say "Meow Meow Meow!" to trigger a marriage proposal. Shuffle a special "Yes, I do" card into your hand and draw a card randomly. If you draw the "I do" card, you win! But other players with the same cards may add them to your shuffled hand to reduce your chance of success. If you fail, the game continues but you may take an extra "I do" card during your next proposal attempt.
