The oldest player from the group can be the dealer.
The dealer shuffles the deck of cards and deals 5
cards to each player. Use the rest as the DRAW pile
on the side. Open and place the board in the center
The player on the left of the dealer start the play.
6. How to get “Sun Light” ?
There are 2 ways to claim “Sun Light”.
Play the “Rainbow” card when there are 3 or more cards on the board.
OR
Place the last missing card on the board to complete all 7 colors. In either of the
above ways, take all the cards from the board and keep them face-up infront of
you.
One such set makes one “Sun Light”.
7. Game Play
The player on the left of the dealer starts play. On your turn, you can either play
any of the 7 colours missing on the board or any action card. If you have
unplayable cards then you need to pick up one card from the DRAW pile and play
if you can.
Colour cards: Place a card on the matching card on the board if it is free. If the
card you placed is the last card on the board then pick up all the cards from the
board and place them face-up in front of you. One such set makes one “Sun
Light”.
Action cards: All action cards are played outside the board face-up in the
DISCARD pile.

1. At the end of your turn, if you have 10 or more cards, then put all your cards
back in the DRAW pile. Shue the draw pile and draw 5 cards from it.
