Mow

Become farmers that round up cows in the field and form them into herds that are brought into the stable. Some cows are surrounded with flies, so nobody wants to be near them.

A game is played over several rounds. At the beginning of every round each farmer receives 5 cow cards. The farmer with the most flies starts the round. He places a card in the center of the table and then draws a new card from the deck and adds it to his hand. Each card, numbered from 0 to 16, shows a cow surrounded from 0 to 5 flies. The farmer who places the first card can choose any number. Subsequent cows must be numbered higher or lower than all the cows already in the herd. A farmer who cannot or does not want to add a cow to the line, takes all the cards in the herd and places them face down in his stable. Then he starts a new herd by placing a new card from his hand in the middle of the table.

When a farmer takes the last card from the deck, the current round is played out until the herd is added to one of the farmers’ stables. The round has then ended and farmers count their points. Each fly in a stable produces 1 embarrassment point.

The game ends when a farmer has amassed more than 100 flies. The farmer with the fewest flies wins.
