may be played for any number. When a Skip-Bo card is played into
the Building Pile it will display the number for which it was played.
At the beginning of the game each player is dealt a Stock Pile of 30
cards (for the shorter version of Skip-Bo ,Skip-Bo Short, 10 cards).
HOW TO MOVE A CARD
After the cards are dealt, the frame around the first card in a play-
er's Hand will flash. Using the Scroll button, the player must scroll
the flashing frame on to the card you want to play. Note: You may
play a card from your Hand, Discard Pile or Stock Pile.
The player must then press the Select/Enter button. A frame will
remain around the selected card and the flashing frame can be
moved to the location you would like to play the card. If you would
like to de-select a card press the Select/Enter key again while the
frame is still on the card.
When the frame is flashing at the new location the player must
press the Select/Enter key. The card will then appear in the new
location.
If you try and make an illegal move with the Scroll Up button-the
error sound will be heard and the card will be de-selected.
If you make an illegal move with the Scroll button you will hear the
error sound but the card will not be de-selected.
Each time you move a card out of your Hand, the cards sort to the
left to close any gaps.

HOW TO PLAY

1. Push the On/Off button to wake up the game. The game will
start in four- player mode and deal cards to you and your
three computer opponents.
2. The cards are dealt to each player's Stock Pile. The top card
of the Stock Pile is turned face up. On the first player's turn, 5
cards are dealt from the Draw Pile to the player's Hand. Player
One's cards are dealt face up with the first one blinking to
indicate it's your turn (You are always Player One). Players 2-
4's cards are dealt face down.
3. If you have a 1 or a Skip-Bo (wild) card, you can use it to start
a Building Pile. Building Piles can only be started with a 1 or a
Skip-Bo and must be played in sequential order 1-12. (Cards
can be moved from the player's Hand, Stock Pile or Discard
Pile). If a player can play all 5 cards in their Hand into the
Building Piles on a single turn, that player will be dealt an
additional 5 cards and continue to play. Hint: Always play the
cards from your Stock Pile first.
4. When a player can no longer move cards into the Building
Piles they must move one card from their Hand to the Discard
Pile and their turn is over. The player can only move one card
into the Discard Pile per turn. Cards can not be moved from
pile to pile within the Discard Pile. After a player moves a card
into the Discard pile it is the next players turn. Hint: Keep
track of how you put the cards into your Discard Piles so that
you may use them when you need them.
