Cambio

Objective

Have the lowest total card score when "CAMBIO" is called and the game ends.

Card Values

• A: 1 point
• 2 to 10: Face value
• J, Q: 10 points
• Red Kings (Hearts, Diamonds): -1 point
• Black Kings (Spades, Clubs): 10 points
• Jokers: 0 points

Action Card Powers

If you draw and discard these cards directly, you can use their power:

• 7 or 8: Peek at one of your own cards.
• 9 or 10: Peek at an opponent's card.
• J or Q: Swap any card in play (yours or opponent's) with another card, without looking at them.

Gameplay

1. Every player starts with 4 face-down cards, and gets to look at their bottom 2 cards once at the beginning.
2. On your turn, you draw a card from either the Deck or the Discard pile.
3. If you draw from the deck, you can either swap it with one of your hand cards (discarding the old hand card) OR discard the drawn card directly. Discarding special cards (7-Q) lets you use their power.
4. If you draw from the discard pile, you must swap it with a card from your hand.
5. Stacking: At any time, if you know your card matches the value of the top card on the discard pile, you can throw it directly on top of the discard pile to get rid of it. If you are wrong, you draw a penalty card.
6. Calling Cambio: If you believe you have the lowest score, you can call "Cambio" on your turn. Every other player gets one final turn, then all cards are revealed and scores are compared.
