INSTRUCTIONS

AGES:

4 and up

PLAYERS:

OBJECT OF THE GAME:

parts needed to make a monster.

CONTENTS:

18 “Take a Part” cards, 4 Scientist cards and 2 Wild cards.

2-4

Be the first player to collect all six

5 different monsters (made up of 6 cards each),

GAME SET UP:

Shuffle the cards and deal each player 3
cards. Players may look at the cards they are dealt, but
should not let other players see them. Place the remaining
cards, face down, in the center of the play area to form the
draw pile. Take the top card and place it face up next to the
draw pile. This will be the discard pile.

PLAY:

The youngest player goes first. Play always passes to
the left. The first player draws a card from the draw pile,
adding it to the cards in his hand. Then the player must
discard by either laying a card on the discard pile or by
playing on his monster.

If the player has a Monster Part card that he needs to make
a monster, the card is played in
front of the player. When players
are building a monster, the cards
should be placed as shown. The
Monster Part cars may be
played in any order.

If the player cannot play a
Monster Part card, he may play
one of the following cards on
the discard pile:

Take a Part Cards

•

- Take a Body, Take an Arm (R-right or
L-left), Take a Leg (R-right or L-left), or Take a Head. These
cards allow a player to take a body part, as indicated on
the card, from another player‘s monster.

•

Wild

- This card may be used in place of a Monster Part in
a player's monster. Once a Wild is played as a part of a
monster, it cannot change it's meaning. If the Wild is
substituted for a monster arm, it cannot represent a
different part later - even if it is stolen, it is still an “arm”.

•

Scientist Card

- This card allows a player to draw two
more cards and then discard two cards. This is in addition
to the player's regular turn. The Scientist card may be
played immediately after drawing it, or a player may choose
to save it for later during the game.

REMEMBER:

Players draw and discard in every turn. So a
player should always have three cards in his hand at the end
of his turn.

WINNING THE GAME:

The first player to complete a
monster with all six of his parts is the winner. The
monster can be mixed up as long as the completed
monster consists of 1 head, 1 body, 1 right arm, 1 left arm, 1
right leg and 1 left leg as shown to the left.
