PIPOLO
A “LIAR” GAME
OBJECT: to discard all your cards.
Deal 8 cards to each player. The first player lays a card face down in the middle of the table and announces, for example, that it is a hairy animal. In turn, the other players then have to lay down cards of their own, also face down, supposedly depicting hairy animals as well...
But everyone is entitled to lie. If at any point you doubt another player’s sincerity, you call out «PIPOLO». If you are right, the liar gathers up all the cards played and adds them to her hand, but if you are wrong, you must collect up all the cards. You win by being the first player to lay down all your cards.
