Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza: Zero Cards FAQ

Q: Can I win immediately when I run out of cards?

A: No! This is the most common misconception. You must continue playing and be the first to slap on a valid match to win. Running out of cards only puts you in the "final phase" of the game.

Q: What happens if I'm the only player with cards left?

A: The game continues! All players without cards must still slap on matches. If you're the only one with cards and you make a mistake, you'll give cards to players who were previously "out."

Q: How many players can be in the "zero cards" state?

A: All but one player can theoretically have zero cards. The game becomes incredibly intense as multiple players compete for that one winning slap!
