Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up WHOT! is simple. Shuffle the deck and deal each player the same number of cards. The remaining cards form the draw pile. The top card of the draw pile is flipped to start the discard pile. There are no compatibility issues, as it is a physical card game. To care for the game, store the cards in a cool, dry place. Avoid bending or damaging the cards. If the cards get dirty, wipe them gently with a dry cloth.
