Twin It! challenges you to spot pairs of cards on the table as quickly as you can. To set up the main game, shuffle the double-sided cards, then give each player a similarly-sized stack. Players take turns revealing cards and placing them on the table, leaving all cards visible. As soon as someone spots matching cards, they place a finger on each card, then claim the pair, leaving them in a stack beside themselves. If another card of this type appears, anyone who fingers the twins claims all of those cards! Be the first to claim five twins to win.

You can also play Twin It!as a team game. When you spot twins, you place your finger on one of the cards and hope your teammate can finger the other before an opponent does, or else the opponent claims the twins instead of you!

Twin It! can also be played with the cards being held in hand facing away (and toward) each player.

Normally, calm reigns supreme amongst the animals of the jungle, but when the time comes to eat, the animals gather round the forest of totems and their wild instincts take over. The hungriest animals race to catch their prey first. Others become angry and shout, while the chameleon hides. When the hunter appears, there is panic as the animals race to protect themselves!

Jungle Speed Safari is a standalone game that's part of the Jungle Speed family. The core gameplay is the same, with players turning over cards from their personal stacks one by one in front of themselves and reacting when certain cards or combinations of cards appear, but Jungle Speed Safari features five wooden totems to grab instead of one, and you interact with them in different ways, with every card that's revealed possibly triggering an action. If a player reveals a hungry animal card, for example, all players must race to grab the appropriate totem to satisfy the animal. Whoever grabs that totem adds the hungry animal card to his score pile.

In Jungle Speed, you must rely on your keen sense of observation and quick reflexes. It requires a steady hand -- which can be hard to maintain during the many fits of maniacal laughter! The wooden Totem sits in the middle of the table, waiting for the player with the fastest reflexes to snatch it up and win the game.

Each player is dealt a hand of cards. In order to win you must be the first player to get rid of all of your cards. Each turn, all of the players reveal one of their cards. If two cards are identical, those players must make a grab for the Totem. The faster player then gives their cards to their unfortunate adversary.

To add to the difficulty, certain cards are almost identical, which can trick a hapless player into grabbing the Totem by mistake -- a grave error. Other cards force all players to make a grab at once, change the method of play, or otherwise add to the difficulty.

'Background':
The Aboulou Tribe in Eastern Trisopotamia invented Jungle Speed to determine the shares of food each member received after a successful hunt approximately 3000 years ago. The Aboulous originally used eucalyptus leaves as cards for the game. These early games usually ended in bloody fights because, unfortunately, all of the cards were identical. This simple error nearly drove the tribe to extinction. This is why Jungle Speed remained unknown by the outside world until the 20th century, when 2 clever gamethropologists, Tom & Yako, replaced the leaves with the playing cards we now use today.
