Welcome to Gotta Wanna, an engaging and fun game that is perfect for practicing a variety of skills. This game is easy to learn and can be played by children and adults alike.
The objective of Gotta Wanna is to connect all the cards in the deck in the correct order by listening to the clues and finding the matching card. The game can be played individually or as a group, and the goal is to complete the deck as quickly and accurately as possible.
To play Gotta Wanna, follow these simple instructions:
- Shuffle the deck of cards, which includes 24 problem cards representing each half and whole hour in a 12-hour cycle.
- Distribute the cards evenly among the players if playing in a group. If playing individually, spread the cards out in front of you.
- The player with the "Start Card" begins the game by reading the question or prompt on their card and asking "Wanna" the card with the answer.
- The player with the corresponding card reads their answer and then asks the next question on their card, and so on.
- The game continues this way until all the cards have been played and the players successfully connect all the questions and answers.
- If playing in a group, the player who connects all their cards first is the winner. If playing individually, time yourself to see how quickly you can complete the deck.
Variations:
- To make the game more challenging, players can time themselves and try to beat their previous time in subsequent rounds.
- For younger players or learners, you can start with a smaller deck of cards and gradually increase the difficulty level as they progress.
- Players can create custom cards to add to the deck and make the game more personalized or tailored to a specific theme or topic.
We hope you enjoy playing the Gotta Wanna game!
