Scaled-Down is a simple card game for two to four players. The Goal of the game is to be the first player to get rid of all their cards.
1. Shuffle a standard deck of 52 playing cards and deal out all the cards to the players.
2. The player to the left of the dealer goes first and plays a card face-Up in the center of the table.
3. The next player must then play a card that is either one rank higher or one rank lower than the card already in the center. For example, if the first card played is a 5, the next player can play either a 4 or a 6.
4. If a player cannot play a card that is one rank higher or lower, they must draw a card from the deck. If they can play the card they drew, they can do so. Otherwise, the next player takes their Turn.
5. The game continues until one player has no cards left. That player is the winner.
