Zeus, apparently arranged that a deed contest would be held in order to find who is the mightiest god and the most passable to find Olympus. All gods would be able to use their special skills to prevail in this contest. Well, at least that is the description astern the adding card game coming from Greece, titled OMG (Oh My Gods!).

OMG is a card game expected by a accessory designer, George Christofidis who has collaborated once performer Tony Tzanoukakis, answerable for the card art. OMG can be played by two to six players and lasts roughly 20 minutes. Its by yourself components are cards. The board game assist is actually full of such tiny card games, packaged in small boxes and costing approximately 10$, as a consequences the competition to twist is to your liking.

Each artist during his outlook, must do its stuff a card slope uphill, upon severity of the last turn-uphill card at the center of the table. In order to strike a blow, the card played must in flames either the number or the god of the last played card. If that is the conflict, subsequently it’s the neighboring-door artiste’s outlook. If neither the number nor the god is matched, furthermore the performer takes a penalty and must lucky talisman some new cards, their number depending upon numbers upon the two cards (the one played and the one already at the table). If the two cards have the same color, the penalty is equal to the difference of the two numbers. If the color is swap, the penalty is equal to the difference of the two numbers gain one.
