Face Down

How to run it

One deck, jokers out, dealt out flat between you. Look at your own and nobody else's.

The turn

1. Slide one card face down to somebody and say a suit. True or false, entirely up to you.
2. They do one of two things. CALL — say true or false. Right, and it goes face up in front of you; wrong, and it goes in front of them.
3. Or PEEK — look at it, then pass it on to anybody who has not seen it yet, with a suit of their own choosing. Once everybody but one has seen it, that man has to call.

Worth knowing

• Four of the same suit in front of you and you are out, and the game is over.
• Run out of cards on your turn and you are out the same way.
• The good move is telling the truth while looking like you are not.

What you need

• A deck of cards
