…in the Old Wild West
Salute to the Wild West. During the time, many pioneers rushed westwards in search of lands, gold & silver, better lives, and sometimes, to escape the law.
From sheriffs, cowboy gunfighters, and to the outlaws, I love them all. The Old Wild West legends render lots of tales, biographies, and in-depth history into the lives and times in the American West.
With my uniquely designed playing cards, I’m trying to create a mini card game featuring the Wild West duels. It’s a quick set up and easy-to-play exciting game, for both adults & kids. Let’s together embark on a Wild West adventure now!
The decks are presented in 2 versions :
(A) Sheriff Version
(B) Bandit Version

1. Sort out the court cards into the Rangers Pile; then, aces and the other cards into the Main Pile. Place the 3 Wanted cards aside. Then, turn all the cards face-down and shuffle.
2. Deal 1 ranger card to each player; cards face-up.
3. Place the Rangers Pile at the side.
4. Get 3 cards from the Main Pile, & place them face-up in the centre.
5. Then deal 2 cards (from the Main Pile) to each player; cards face-down.
6. Both players together count 1, 2, 3 and then every player checks his/her own cards to see…
7. Any numbered cards in hand can pair with any of the 3 cards in the centre, so to get “a pair adding up to 10”. (Eg, 2+8, 3+7, 4+6, 5+5, Ace+9, Ace+10).
8. If yes, be quick to slap at the pairing card in the centre and say “Bang!”.
9. If more than one players slap on the same card, the winner is the one whose hand slaps first.
10. When the players slap at different cards at the same time, the winner is the one with a ranger card in the same suit of the slapped centre card.
11. The winner is then awarded 1 Wanted card.
12. Play again & see who gets more Wanted cards.
