GAME INSTRUCTIONS
Object of Game
The first player to score one billion dollars wins the game.
Setup
Use only the number of industries to the number of players. For example, if there are
only 5 players, use only the five highest value asset industry sets Technology, Energy,
Finance, Media, and Entertainment. If there are six players then, six industry sets
should be used and so on up to eight players. The wild cards (Taxman and Billionaire)
are always played. Shuffle and deal all of the cards face down to each player. All
players will have 9 cards with two players having 10 cards. The dealer rotates after
each round.
Collecting
Each player should decide silently, which set of cards to collect (this may change during
the game) and then trade surplus cards (ie. cards other than the industry that they
have decided to collect).
Trading
The Dealer declares “Ready, Set, Swap” and trading commences. All players trade at
the same time. Players trade surplus cards by holding the cards face down on the table
shouting the number of cards they wish to exchange but THEY MUST ONLY TRADE
CARDS OF THE SAME TYPE. Example: 2 Energy, 4 Technology, etc. The Taxman and
Billionaire cards can be included as one of the cards in ANY group. Any number of
cards from one upwards can be traded at any one time provided they are the same
type or include wild cards. An exchange takes place when two players both declare
equal number of cards to trade (ie. “two”, “two”). Trading MUST then take place. The
faster you trade, the faster you win.
Ages: 6+
Players: 3-8

Winning
When a player has collected all of one industry (ie. 9 cards) – this player has won the
particular round and he/she calls out “Billionaire.” All trading stops at that point. The
player who calls “Billionaire” gets the value of the industry they collected added to
his/her score.
The Billionaire
The Billionaire card can be an asset or a liability and can be used as a Wild card to
complete a set (ie. 8 Energy plus Billionaire is a winning hand). In each round there
will be two players with 10 cards in their hand. If one of these players collects all
nine of a industry plus the Billionaire, his/her score is doubled. The player with the
Billionaire card in his/her hand at the end of the round, unless he/she is the winner, is
also fined $25 million.
The Taxman
The Taxman is never a desireable card. It is advisable to exchange it immediately
when it comes into a player’s possession. The player holding the Taxman when
someone shouts “Billionaire” is fined $25 million.
