EXAMPLE GAME PLAY:
• Player light is illuminated and the 2 light is blinking — it is Player 2’s turn.
• Music plays and lights blink on the Game Unit. The Category light is
illuminated and the 4 light is blinking — the #4 category is read
aloud from the card by an opponent.
• Player 2 immediately presses the blinking 4 button to start the
30-second timer. She calls out names of nuts — as many as she
can think of, and presses the corresponding letter lights, to turn
them off.
• The buzzer sounds and Player 2 presses the blinking 2 button to
confirm her turn has ended. The game unit will record how many
letter lights she turned off and remember them on her next turn.

STEAL:
Turn ON an opponent’s letter lights!
• If the Steal button lights up on your turn, you
get to look at the progress of your opponents,
and take away from one of them.
• Press each of the other player’s blinking
numbers and look at their letter lights,
comparing who has the most turned off.
• You may steal from the player of your choice.
• To confirm which player you want to steal
from, hold their number button down for
several seconds.
• This allows you to use your turn to TURN
BACK ON as many of your opponent’s letter
lights as you can. Just play the same way as
before, but instead press the letter lights that
are NOT lit, turning them ON as you go.
• Play the same as before: the Game Unit will
select a category number, an opponent should
read it aloud and start the timer.
• You will have 15 seconds to turn on as many
letter lights as you can.
• Then your turn ends. Press your own number
button to confirm the end of your turn, and
pass the Game Unit to the next player.
• Go! Yell out items that fit your category, and
press the corresponding letter lights on the
game board. For example, a category might
be: Types of Nuts. You’ll say things like,
“Almond!” and press the A button; “Walnut!”
and press the W button; “Brazil Nut!” and
press the B button, and so-on. (Note: For two
word answers, such as names, you may use only
one of the letters. For example, “Abraham
Lincoln” can be used for A or L but not both
letters in the same turn.
• As you press letter lights, they’ll go dark.
• If you make a mistake and need to re-light a
letter light, just press it again to turn it back on.
• The 30-second timer will be ticking as you play,
and when you run out of time the buzzer will
sound.
• The letter lights you have left will blink and
remain lit until you press your number button
to confirm the end of your turn. Pass the
Game Unit to the next player, and play the same
way.
• When it comes back around to your next turn,
notice that the same letter lights you left on
your last turn, remain lit now. You only have
to work with letters you haven’t used before.
FREE:
Turn OFF ONE of your letter lights!
• If the Free button lights up on your turn, your
unused letters will be shown.
• Choose one “free” letter light to turn off.
• Then your turn ends. (you DO NOT need to
press your number to end your turn)
WINNING:
If you’re first to turn off all your letter lights,
you win! Celebrate as the Game Unit plays the
victory music and light show!
The players that lost to you may review their
final game board by pressing their blinking Player
number.
