🐀 How to Play Egyptian Rat Screw
- Take turns playing cards face-up onto the central pile.
- SLAP the pile when any of these appear on top:
- Double — two cards of the same rank in a row (e.g. 7, 7)
- Sandwich — same rank with one card between (e.g. 8, Q, 8)
- Top or Bottom = 10 — top and bottom card of pile add to 10
- Jack on pile — anytime a Jack is the top card
- Face cards (J/Q/K/A) force your opponent to play tribute: J=1 card, Q=2, K=3, A=4. If they play a face card before running out, the penalty reverses!
- Bad slap = you give 2 cards to the bottom of the pile. Winner has all 52 cards.
