Game rules

Preparation: Form a circle of 2 to 5 people. Each player makes a fist with one hand, folding the four fingers into the palm and leaving the thumb on top. The guessing game determines the banker.

  1. The dealer shouts an integer between 0 and the number of players; while shouting, everyone chooses to raise their thumbs up or keep them down, and the dealer also shouts.
  2. The total number of raised thumbs is equal to the number shouted by the dealer. The dealer hits: the player after the dealer receives one unit, and the dealer continues to the next round.
  3. If there is no hit, no one will be punished, and the player to the left of the dealer takes over as the dealer.
  4. A player who changes their thumb after the number is called or acts after seeing others receives one unit; the next player becomes the dealer.

Example: In a 5-player game, you can call 0 to 5; if the dealer calls 3 and three thumbs stand up, it is a hit.
