What to do: Two-sided colour print onto card, carefully cut, shuffle and play. Enjoy!

How to play: Shuffle and deal all cards face down; players do not look; first player reveals a card and chooses a category; all reveal and compare the same category; highest (or stated lowest) wins; winner takes cards to bottom of deck and chooses next category; ties form a draw pile; same player calls a new category; eventual winner takes all cards; players with no cards are out; last player with cards wins. Hacks are special effects tied to specific categories; hacks may only be used if that (colour coded) category was played in the round; Golden hacks apply regardless of category; they override normal hacks and may override rules; ambiguous hacks may be interpreted freely if reasonable, consistent, and argued persuasively; players debate disputes and the strongest argument wins; if unresolved, game end. Win by collecting all cards, using stats, hacks, golden hacks, and argumentation to influence outcomes.

Enjoy!
