Choose which cactus card you want to take and decide which side you will handle it by. When you flip it over, you may get a nice set of flowers or an itchy prick in your finger! In Ouch!, players take turns choosing the cactus card with the prettiest flowers they want to bring over to their collection. Before taking the card, they need to indicate which side of the card they will touch, then flip it while handling only that edge of the card. If the reverse is clear on that side, they can take the card and score that number of flowers; if the reverse shows a cactus full of thorns, they lose the card. As soon as someone manages to keep eight cards (or the deck runs out), players will count the number of flowers they've collected. The one with the highest number of flowers in their collection wins. -description from publisher
