I did not attend the lesson due to competition but I am informed that we will be using Yifan's design and we hope we can complete this card game as soon as possible and if Yifan;s card game does'nt work out or over-budget we may consider using either Wen Yu's or mine card game .

During this week's GRACE lesson we have decided to use Yi Fan's idea of the card game for our product.We are still in the process of designing the product and we hope we can finish our product before the Mid-year exams

Name: Koh Yi Fan (17)

This week, we discussed about which game rule we are using. We had chosen my game rule. If my game rule really is a failure, we would use Zipin's or Wen Yu's as both of theirs are about the same.

The numbers of cards in the deck are 30.
8 normal cards for each element. 2 special cards for each element.

This would be a 2 player game. Age 8+.

SETUP
-A deck of game cards would be placed in the middle of the game. It would be called ''DECK''.
-The deck would be shuffled.
-Each player draw 4 cards. The cards would be called ''CARD''. Players are not allowed to reveal their cards to other players.
-The person suggested playing this game will be the starting player. However, for subsequent games, the player who lost in the previous game will be the new starting player.

PLAYER'S TURN ACTIONS
-During a player's turn, he/she will have to carry out the followings actions:
1. Play a card. The card should be placed faced down.
2. Draw new card(s) to top-up his hand to a maximum of 4 cards.

PLAYING A CARD
Players may play a EARTH, WATER, or ICE element card from their hand. Earth would win Ice, Ice would win Water, and Water would win Earth.

Each element card would have a number printed on it. The number is the ''POWER'' of the card. A higher Power would win a smaller Power if the cards played are of the same element.

The cards would be in different colours which would affect the game. Some of the cards have special abilities.

WINNING A ROUND
To win a round, a player needs to:
1. Win the opponent's element. Earth wins Ice, Ice wins Water, and Water wins Earth.
2. If the elements are the same, the card with the higher Power wins.

If a player wins that round, the card that he/she played would be kept at his/her ''COLLECTIONS''. The opponent's card would be placed in the ''DISCARD PILE''

If it is a tie (meaning that the element and Power of the cards are the same), no one wins for that round.

WINNING THE GAME
To win the whole game, a player needs to:
1. Collect all 3 different elements of 3 different colours.
2. Collect all 3 same elements of 3 different colours.
3. Collect all 3 different elements of 3 same colours.
4. The Cards in the Deck are used up. The player with the most number of cards in his/her Collections wins. If it is a tie, the player with the most number of Earth element cards win, followed by Water, then Ice.
