Players must exhibit their mastery of the five elements in WuXing by trying to match the master in just the right way.
Each player starts with a hand of cards, with each card showing a hand; each finger of the hand shows one of the five elements on the tip. At the start of a round, someone flips over a card to represent the master's power. Each player then searches her hand for a card that matches the master's card on exactly three fingers — that is, elements on exactly two fingers have been swapped. If only one player finds such a card, she scores both her card and the master's; if more than one player has such a card, then you need to find an element on another player's card that's on the same finger on your card, with whoever does this first claiming all of the cards played.
The game ends when someone runs out of cards in hand, then whoever has collected the most cards wins.
