How to Play Top Trumps
Any number of people can play. Shuffle and deal all the cards face down. Each player holds their cards, face up, in the palm of their hand. Players can only look at their top card.

The player to the dealer's left starts by reading about an item from the top cards (eg, Fighting Skills 87). The other players then read out the same item. The one with the best or highest value wins and places all the top cards including their own to the bottom of their pile. It is then their turn again to choose an item from the next card.

If 2 or more cards share the top value or no data is available for that particular subject then all the cards are placed in the middle and the same player chooses again from the next card. The winner of the hand takes the cards in the middle as well. The person with all the cards at the end is the winner.
