Games to Play

Flame, Water, Forest

To play, you and a friend each choose a card in secret—no peeking allowed! Count down together: “1… 2… 3!” Then, reveal your cards to see who wins.

  • Red (flame) beats Green (forest)
  • Green (forest) beats Blue (water)
  • Blue (water) beats Red (flame)

If both cards are the same color, it’s a tie! Get ready to test your luck and strategy with each flip!

Dragon Duel

Ready for an epic showdown? Here’s how to play Dragon Duel:

  1. Prepare Your Decks: You and your opponent mix up all your dragon cards and divide them evenly. Don’t forget to write your name on your cards to avoid any mix-ups!
  2. Face Down: Keep your stack of cards face down—no peeking allowed!
  3. The Duel Begins: Both players draw their top card and flip them over at the same time.
    • Red (flame) beats Green (forest)
    • Green (forest) beats Blue (water)
    • Blue (water) beats Red (flame)
  4. Same Color?: If the colors are the same, the oldest dragon wins!
  5. War Time!: If your dragons are the same age, it’s time to go to war!
    • Add two face-down cards to the pile, then flip one more card face up.
    • The battle continues—Red beats Green, Green beats Blue, Blue beats Red.
  6. Tied Again?: If you tie again, keep going to war until a winner emerges.
  7. Claim Victory: The winner takes all the cards in the pile. Keep playing until one player runs out of cards. The player with the most cards at the end wins the duel!
