How to Play Twin Win
Designed by Andy Looney
Introduction: This is a blu ffing game in which you get to move any piece you want... so can you assemble one of your secret goal combinations without making it obvious what you’re up to?
Number of Players: 2 or 3
Equipment: 1 Rainbow Stash, 3x3 grid, 10 goal cards
Making Goal Cards: Print the card images onto sticker sheets and mount them on old playing cards. Or you can use blank cards and write the names of the colors you’re using along with Nest and Tree icons.
Setup: Build fi ve Trees each with three di fferent colors. Place one in the center space and one in each corner.
Deal two Goal cards to each player.
How Pieces Move: You can move a piece of ANY color, but you can ONLY move the top-most piece in a stack.
You CANNOT move a piece diagonally.
You can ONLY move clockwise, or into and out from the center space.
How to Play: During each turn, you get TWO actions. You can move two pieces one space each, or one piece two spaces. You can also use one action to trade one of your Goal cards for an unused one.
How to Win: The object of the game is to create one of the patterns shown on your Goal cards. If at any time the appropriately colored Tree or Nest shown on one of your cards appears somewhere on the board, then reveal your card and claim victory!
Pieces under or on top of your Tree or Nest don’t matter, but no other pieces can be in-between.
Who Starts: The player who is actually a twin goes fi rst. Failing that, the player who’s zodiac sign is Gemini goes fi rst. Failing that, the player born on the 2nd goes fi rst. Failing that, roll dice or something.
