Toy Sheet Review With over 320,000 copies sold, Fluxx is quickly becoming a classic party card game, battling UNO. With simple, easy to understand instructions, you and your friends will be up and running in no time. Since the rules are always changing anyway, there are no boring, lengthy instructions to read before starting the game. Just shuffle and deal. Game Summary: There are 4 types of cards in the deck. There are New Rules, Goals, Actions, and Keepers. When the game begins, each player may only play one card, and draw one card from the deck. The rules start to change as soon as a player plays a New Rules, Goals, or Actions card. When one rule changes, players must pay attention to other rules as they may not have changed. Although the rules are easy to follow, playing the game requires a decent amount of thought. Game Play: This game is easy to learn and moves fast. We think this game is most fun with 4-6 players. With only 2 players, we were limited by the rules quite a bit. More players= more cards in play= more fun. Strategy: There are 23 ways to win. Learn to use the rule-changes to your advantage and you will soon be a Fluxx master.
Instructions for playing Fluxx: Dive Right In! The best way to learn Fluxx is to just start playing it. The rules of the game are printed right on the cards, so it's easy to pick it up as you go along. To Get Started Immediately: Place the Basic Rules card in the center of the table, shuffle the deck, and deal three cards to each player. Then just follow the Basic Rules, adapting to New Rules as they appear, continuing until someone meets the most recently played Goal.
Turn Sequence: A turn
consists of the following steps: Types of CardsBasic Rules: This is the starting point, the foundation on which the rest of the game is built. These initial rules will be superseded by New Rules during the course of play, but this card should remain on the table at all times. The Basic Rules are: Draw 1 card per turn, and Play 1 card per turn (with no Hand or Keeper Limits). New Rule: When a New Rule is played, place it face up near the Basic Rules. If it contradicts a New Rule already in play, discard that rule. New Rules take effect instantly, so all players must immediately follow the New Rule as required. This will often cause the player whose turn it is to draw or play additional cards right away, or it may cause other players to immediately discard some of their cards or Keepers. Goal: When a Goal is played, place it face up in the center of the table, discarding the previous Goal (if any). The game begins with no Goal in play, so no one can win until one is played. Keeper: To play a Keeper, take it out of your hand and place it on the table in front of you, face up. Most of the Goals require you to have a particular pair of Keepers, so playing a Keeper is always a good thing. Action: Actions are used once and discarded. Just put the card on the Discard Pile and do whatever it says. Note that while some Actions may cause additional cards to be played, everything that happens as a result of an Action card is considered part of one “play.” It is also possible for an Action to have no effect on the game. Winning the GameThe game continues until one player meets the conditions of the current Goal. That player wins immediately, regardless of whose turn it is. Helpful HintsGoing First: The player who first declares a desire to go first (i.e. the player who “calls it”) gets to go first. An excellent way to call it is to simply grab for the top card on the Draw Pile and start playing. Jumping In: New players
may join the game at any time. They are dealt their three cards as
soon as they jump in. Suggested Layout:

From the Publisher:
"My son received Fluxx as a birthday present last month. This
weekend, we introduced the game to my brothers who were visiting for
the thanksgiving holiday. What a blast! Even the most reserved of my
brothers was giggling like a young one. The best part was that the
children and the adults actually played together, and the TV was off
for quite some time. Of course, everyone wants to buy several sets
as holiday gifts."
