Players sit around a table in a circle. Each player puts both hands out, palms facing down, onto the table. Hands must interlock such that between two hands of each player is at least another
hand from at least one other player.
The game is a sequence of taps on the table. Each hand must tap in the order it is on the table when it is that hands turn. While 1 tap means continue the sequence, 2 taps means reverse the
sequence.
Every time a player mistaps, that is, when one misses a tap when it is their turn or taps when they shouldn’t have done so, the mistapping hand is withdrawn from
the table. Any player whose both hands are withdrawn, is out of the game.
The game continues until 2 hands are left on the table. They are the hands of the winner(s).
In an advanced version of the game, 3 or even 4 taps is possible. 3 taps is miss next hand and continue sequence, and 4 taps is reverse, miss next hand then continue sequence.
