Speed
Play one higher or lower, as fast as you can. 2 players.
How to play Speed
- 1No turns: both players play at the same time, as fast as they can.
- 2You hold five cards and refill from your own face-down stock. Play any card that is one higher or one lower than the top of either centre pile. Aces and Kings connect, so A–K–Q and K–A–2 both work.
- 3Tap a card to play it. If it fits both centre piles, it goes where it leaves you the most plays next.
- 4When neither of you can play, both tap Flip and a new card from each side pile lands on the centre. If someone waits too long, the cards flip by themselves. When the side piles run out, the centre piles are shuffled to make new ones.
- 5The first to get rid of every card in hand and stock wins. If the centre has to be refreshed 40 times, fewest cards left wins.
