JOKER   ADDS WILD CARDS TO GAME

You have the power to add wildness.

Game Setup: Take two joker wild cards. Shuffle the remaining 8 wild cards into the deck before cards are dealt to players. You will be dealt 6 additional cards as your hand.

Play: In an encounter, you may use a wild card as an encounter card. When cards are revealed, you declare it is as any valid encounter card. The wild card you played is removed from the game after the encounter. When you have your power, any other player may use a wild card as any valid encounter card. At the end of the encounter, that wild card is given to you. Whenever a wild card is revealed, you may be zapped. You do not collect the wild card and the player who played the wild card loses. If both players reveal wild cards in an encounter, both players lose and play passes.
( All Players | Mandatory | Reveal/Resolution )

WILD  When you are a main player, before cards are played, you may declare one encounter card value to be “wild” for any player who plays such a card during that encounter.
( Main Player Only | Reveal/Resolution )

SUPER  When you play a wild card it is not removed from the game; it is discarded.
( JOKER | Resolution )

History

The Fun-loving Jokers enjoy humiliating the conceited, mocking the powers that be, and causing general chaos. They seek not to rule, but to satirize the universe.
