How to Play Spoons Number of Players: 4 to 12 What You Need: A deck of cards and spoons (one less than the number of players). Setup: Shuffle a deck of cards and deal 4 cards to each player. Place the spoons in the center of the table (one less than the number of players). Game Play: Players take turns passing cards clockwise in order to achieve four cards of the same kind. The game will proceed as follows: On their turn, a player must: Draw a card from the deck. Discard an unwanted card to the player on their left. The aim is to collect four cards of the same number. When a player achieves this, they may pick up a spoon. Once a player picks up a spoon, all other players must race to grab the remaining spoons from the center. The player who fails to grab a spoon is out of the game. Ending the Game: The game continues, with cards shuffled and dealt again, until only one player remains with one spoon. Note: Each round, the player who starts the game changes. History of the Game This is a game we’d play together as a family on Sundays after church that always was incredibly fun for me. The ten of us would get together around the table and wait for the matching 4 cards that would allow us to pick up a spoon. Usually, the first person would be super stealthy in picking up the spoon, leaving the rest of the players unaware for a time, and it was fun to watch realization sink in and the race from there.
