Arnold: Your cards are on your phone, and the pile is on the TV. On your turn, play a card with the same colour or the same number as the one on top.

Lily: Tap a card to pick it up, then tap it again or flick it up to throw it to the TV. Can’t go? Tap the Draw card and take a new one.

Arnold: Watch out for the special cards! A Skip makes the next player miss a go, a Reverse turns play around, a plus two makes them pick up two, and a wild changes the colour.

Lily: Down to one card? Shout LAST CARD, or tap it, before anyone catches you, or you take two! First to play their last card wins the hand.
