RULES:
The object of the game is to make matches and score points. Players find the matching symbols between two cards, a match must have the same shape and the same color; only the size may be different. There are 4 different mini games you can play.
Version 3 – Hot Potato. Shuffle the cards and deal one card face-down to each player. The remaining cards are set aside to be used later. Decide how many rounds you wish to play (five minimum). The object is to have the least amount of cards after all the rounds have been played. This is accomplished by getting rid of your cards during each round.
Players simultaneously turn over the card in their hands. The card must be held flat in the palm of a steady hand. If you spot a matching symbol between your card and another player’s card, call it out. Place your card face-up on top of the other player’s card. If you have two or more cards in your hand look only at your top card for a match. When you spot it, give all your cards to the player who has the match. Play is repeated in this manner until one player has all the cards. That player loses the round and creates a personal discard pile with those cards. A new round starts. At the end of the final round, the player with the least amount of cards in their discard pile wins the game.

About Spot it!, from BoardGameGeek:
Spot it!, a.k.a. Dobble, is a simple pattern recognition game in which players try to find an image shown on two cards.
Each card in original Spot it! features eight different symbols, with the symbols varying in size from one card to the next. Any two cards have exactly one symbol in common. For the basic Spot it! game, reveal one card, then another. Whoever spots the symbol in common on both cards claims the first card, then another card is revealed for players to search, and so on. Whoever has collected the most cards when the 55-card deck runs out wins!
Rules for different games – each an observation game with a speed element – are included with Spot it!, with the first player to find a match either gaining or getting rid of a card. Multiple versions of Spot it! have been published, with images in each version ranging from Halloween to hockey to baseball to San Francisco.
The game is sold as Spot it! in the USA and Dobble in Europe, with slight differences between the two editions.
Note: some versions have fewer cards and fewer symbols per card. (E.g. 30 cards with 6 symbols each.): Spot it! 1,2,3
