From BoardGameGeek

16 Candies is a fast-paced and sweet family game for 3-4 players. In each round, players draw and discard cards featuring different types of candy, trying to form the best hand they can with their 3 cards. When a player thinks they have the best hand, they can shout "I GOT CANDY!" Opposing players will have 1 final turn to optimize their hand before the round ends, at which point all players will reveal their hands. The player with the worst hand must remove a penalty amount of candy from their starting supply of 16 cardboard candies (or real candy, if you choose to play with it). The game ends when only one player has candy left in their supply, and that player is the winner. With quick turns and a fun theme, 16 Candies is a tasty treat for game nights with family and friends. -description from designer
