Moonlight's Game

Players: 2 to 4

Horse Cards: 4 to 20 per player

Setup: Stack your cards facedown. You can have more than one of the same card in your stack.

Play: All players turn their top card faceup at the same time. Look at everyone’s cards. If your card has the same number of symbols or the same kind of symbols as another player’s card, tap the table. The first player to tap wins the round and starts a face-up bonus pile.

Example: If your card has 3 hearts and another card has 3 moons, tap the table. If your card has 3 hearts and another card has 1 heart, tap the table.

Players keep separate bonus piles so their cards don’t get mixed together. When anyone has played all his cards, everyone shuffles their stacks. (Don’t shuffle your bonus piles.) Continue to play with your shuffled stacks.

Winning: Once any player has gone through her stacks three times, count the symbols on the cards in your bonus pile. The player with the most symbols wins!

Bella's Game

Players: 1

Horse Cards: 4 or more.

Play: Mix the cards and arrange them, picture side down, in front of you. Sit still and relax. When you are ready, take a card. Take time to look at the picture and read the text. The horse’s message can be helpful for you. It can help you to think positive, peaceful, and loving thoughts toward yourself and other people. Let these positive thoughts stay with you in everything you do.

Leonardo's Game

Players: 2 to 6

Horse Cards: 20 per player

Setup: Stack your cards facedown. You can have more than one of the same card in your stack.

Play: Draw 7 cards from your stack into your hand. The oldest player turns over the top card on his stack to start a face-up playing pile in front of him. The player to his left looks for a card in her hand that has either the same number of symbols or the same kind of symbols as that card. She plays her card faceup in her own playing pile.

Example: If Peter plays a card with 2 horseshoes, then Gitte can play any card with horseshoes or any card with 2 symbols. If Gitte doesn’t have a matching card, she must draw a card from her stack into her hand. If that card matches, she may play it. If it doesn’t match, her turn ends.

Play continues to the left, with each player trying to match the last card played. Players have separate playing piles so their cards don’t get mixed together.

Winning: The first player to play the last card in her hand wins!
