N.E.X.T.  2 to 5 players. N.E.X.T. is the next generation Truth or Dare played with a deck of playing cards. We try to keep it tasteful and as always, strategically fun and entertaining. Feel free to provide comments and questions in our forum.


Rules
  • Every player has a hidden hand (only the player can see), and a display hand (for everyone to see).
  • Shuffle cards, distribute 3 to each player’s hidden hand. Shuffler goes first and take turns in a clockwise direction.
  • The idea of this game is to create the largest poker hand on 'display'.
  • On the player’s turn, first pick up a card from the deck. Pick a card you would like to play from your hand. Look up what task needs to be done on the 'N.E.X.T. task list'. If you complete the task successfully, the card stays on your display. Else, the card is put back at the bottom of the deck. Only 1 diamond card (if the player has one) + 1 non-diamond card can be played per turn. Feel free to say 'NEXT!' after your turn.
  • Once the first person has 5 cards displayed, he/she takes all non-displayed cards and randomly complete everyone’s 5 display hand. The losing poker hand donates X dollars to an agreed upon charity (adjust X to the groups' agreement. Default is 5).
