Let the "trumping" begin!

In the context of "Topic Trumps" the term "trump" refers to a specific attribute or statistic on a card that is used for comparison during gameplay. Each card in the game has several attributes or values associated with the theme of the card, such as speed, weight, firepower, etc. When two players are facing off in a round, they each choose one attribute from their respective cards to compare. The card with the higher value for the chosen attribute "trumps" the opponent's card, and its owner wins the round and collects the opponent's card. The concept of "trumping" essentially signifies the act of having a higher value in a specific attribute and thus prevailing in that round of the game.

Step 1 - shuffle & deal:

Divide the cards evenly amongst all the players...

Step 2. Player 1 calls:

Player 1 flips over their top card, chooses a stat and announces it!

Step 3. The other players respond:

Players 2 & 3 flip over their top card and call out the value for the same stat!

Step 4. Winner takes all:

Players 2, having the highest value, wins this round and receives the face up cards from player 1 & player 2. All 3 face up cards now go face down on the bottom of Player 2's deck.

Step 5. A new round begins:

As winner of the previous round, Players 2 gets to choose the stat.

This process repeats until one player has all the cards...

In the event of a draw:

All cards go face up in the center...

The first player to win a round gets all the cards and takes control of the call!
