I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Perhaps precisely because smartphones, TVs, and PC games have evolved so much lately, tabletop games are red-hot right now!

They’re so appealing that even adults get hooked.

Among these tabletop games, we’ve put together a selection of card games you can enjoy with your kids.

It’s the start of a super fun time at home!

How to Play and Rules for the Popular Kids’ Card Game “Pig’s Tail”

Pig's tail

Let me introduce a card game called Pig’s Tail.

Spread the playing cards face down in a circle.

Decide the order of play, then flip cards in turn and place them in the center.

If the same suit appears as the previously placed card, the player who flipped it must take all the cards that have been placed so far.

Then resume the game and repeat the same process.

If a Joker appears, the player who flipped it may return the cards in their hand to the center pile.

Keep drawing until all cards have been played; the player with the fewest cards at the end wins.

Give it a try!
