Looking for a fun way to put your new Chinoiserie Twin pack of playing cards to fun use? Gather your friends and family for a round (or three!) of Spoons — a fast-paced card game full of laughter, quick reactions, and a little chaos. It’s the perfect after-dinner game to play with your beautifully designed cards!
What you need:
-
A deck of cards
-
One less spoon than the number of players
(e.g. 6 players = 5 spoons)
Set up:
-
Place the spoons in the centre of the table where everyone can reach them.
-
Deal four cards to each player.
How to play:
-
The dealer draws a card from the deck, keeps it or passes it to the next player, and then discards one card to their left.
-
Each player quickly takes the card passed to them, decides whether to keep it, and passes one card on.
-
The goal is to collect four of a kind (e.g. four 8s).
-
As soon as a player gets four of a kind, they grab a spoon — and everyone else must grab one too!
-
The player left without a spoon is out. Remove one spoon and keep playing until one winner remains!
Optional twist:
The first person to notice a spoon missing can grab one silently — watch the chaos as others slowly realise and dive for the rest!
