No thanks!
Currently in my Minimal Travel Table Top Game Collection 3. Here are simplified rules for No thanks!.
Cards
For this game, you need:
- 3-7 players
- 33 cards, numbered 3–35 (colored green)
- 55 pass tokens (you can use rest of the cards face down)
- Way to keep score
In Minimal Travel Table Top Game Collection 3, pick all cards with green index.
Setup
- Shuffle all cards into a single deck.
- Take out 9 cards from the deck without looking (burned cards).
- Flip top card face up.
- Deal each player 11 pass tokens (6 players = 9, 7 players = 7).
Gameplay
- Game is played in 4 rounds (each round consists of entire deck).
-
On player's turn, they can either
- place a pass token next to the face-up card and pass, or
- take the active card, all pass tokens next to it and place the card in front of them
Scoring & Next round
- Each card in front of a player is worth its face value. However, if the card is part of sequencial run, only the lowest card of that run is counted.
- For example, card 8 alone is worth 8 points. If you have cards 13, 14, 15 and 16, the entire sequence is worth 13 points.
- After this, subtract 1 point for each pass token in hand.
- Record scores and begin a new round.
Game end
- After 4 rounds, player with lowest score wins.
