Phylis' Phone in - Rules
What you will need:
1 Die
2 - 4 players
A pair of scissors
Some glue
4 counters or (5ps will do, if you have something to colour them in)
Preparation:
You will need to print out and cut out the chance, problem and answer cards, fold them in half and glue them.
In addition you will need to print out the game board
Playing the game:
Get your problem cards and deal out 4 problem cards to each player.
Then place everyone's counters on the start space.
When you reach a space that says "pick up an answer card" then you must offer your problem cards (face down) to the player to your left and they must pick a card at random. You must then pick up an answer card and show both of the cards to all the other players and they must decide whether that answer is appropriate (even if a bit weird) to the problem. (No cheating!) If it is appropriate put your problem card put your problem to the bottom of the problem card pile, and your answer card to the bottom of the answer card pile. If it is not appropriate you must keep your problem card and put the answer card on the bottom of the answer card pile.
If you should happen to run out of problem cards on the pile on the board, then carry on the game without picking up problem cards, then when any become available picking them up must commence again.
When you reach a space that says, "pick up a problem card" pick up another problem card from the top of the problem card pile.
When you reach a pile that says, "Pick up a chance card" pick up a chance card from the chance card pile and do as it instructs you to.
The winner is the person to get rid of all their problem cards first.
