House Rules

• Rando Cardrissian – Rando Cardrissian is an imaginary player of the game. While playing the game, players can pick up a white card randomly from the box and then throw it into the play. This card belongs to our imaginary player. If this player wins the game, other players are to hang their heads in shame.
• Rebooting The Universe – Players can choose to trade in an awesome point at any stage of the game. They can exchange an awesome point with 10 white cards.
• Packing Heat – Before picking 2 cards, players can draw an extra white card so as to have multiple options.
• Survival of the Fittest – When players get rid of 1 white card at a time and when the last card is left, that is the winner of the game.
• Serious Business – In every round, the Czar announces 3 top favorites instead of just one. And the points are given accordingly. The player on top position gets 3 points, on the 2^nd position gets 2 points and the player on the third position gets 1 point. Player who has grabbed the highest number of points becomes the winner.  
• God is Dead – This is when the game is played without the Czar. The players themselves pick the card they think is the funniest and conduct a communal vote. Whichever card gets the most votes wins.
• Never Have I Ever – If a player throws a white card in ignorance of the content of that card, they have to announce it to the rest of the players and are also shamed for their ignorance.
• Happy Ending – If a player wants to finish the game, all they have to do is Take a black card and say – “Make a Haiku”. This is the official closing ceremony of the game Cards against humanity.
