PERKO! The Game of Name Dropping and Name Swapping

Players (or teams) try to be the first to discard all of their Namer cards (cards that contain common surnames) by making matches with Gamer cards (cards that contain letters). For example, the Namer "Washington" could be matched with the Gamer "G" by saying "George Washington". It's not always that easy, however, as the Gamer letter is not in their control. Players need to be creative - some examples (with Gamer letter in parantheses): (M) Martha Washington, (U) Washington University, (D) Denzel Washington, (R) Washington Redskins, (P) Washington Post, (O) Olympia Washington. Matches can be ANY two-word proper name (person, place or thing) agreed to by the group (including songs, movies, friends, etc.). Strategy is imperative, with turns being extended by matching Namer-Gamer colors. Players may need to draw additional cards or trade cards with other teams. Very challenging game that requires a great deal of creativity and quickly becomes quite addictive. Game contains 275 Namers and 275 Gamers.
