Zirkus Finito

 

Variant of Mau Mau with a circus theme. Each player is dealt 8 cards and in turn plays either the same animal or the same colour onto the stack in the middle, if one cannot play one must draw a card. The ringmaster demands a number, the clown a colour, the snake is a joker and can be played anytime. The arrow changes direction of play, the cage forces a player to pass unless he can play another cage. Encore forces a player to draw cards unless he can play another encore. If only one card is left on hand, one calls Circus, with the last card playe done calls Finito and has won.
