tell you which color represents which player’s side (e.g. white for the player, black
for the unit), then a group of covered cards will be displayed. Take turns uncovering
the cards. Try to defeat the opposite team by moving your higher ranking cards
on top of their lower or same ranking cards. Ranks are indicated with the number
of bars shown on the cards. The highest ranking has 3 bars and the lowest ranking
has 1 bar.
The first one to completely defeat the other team and end up with the
last card is the winner. If both sides have only one card left, the side with higher
ranking will automatically become the winner. If both sides have the same ranking
with only one card left the game is a tie. Throughout the game, you can use the
mouse, or the cursor keys, to operate the on-screen ‘arrow’. When you want to
