📖 About This Game

The Golden Egg is a childrens' card game set in a traditional farmyard. Players start with a number of tokens and receive a set of cards face down. On their turn a player turns over the top most card from their deck and performs the action written there. This may involve paying tokens into the pool, receiving tokens from the pool, or paying or receiving tokens from the holders of other cards. When a player turns up an egg card they pay one token into the pool and take the golden egg card irrespective of whether it is still in the middle or held by another player. When the golden goose is turned up the holder of the golden egg wins the pool. The game can continue a pre-determined number of rounds or until all bar one player are bankrupt.
