"No problem. The basic point is trying to top a number that's already out." Looking around, Cloud found them a convenient table and laid the cards out in a 3x3 grid. "Players take turns until nine cards are down. There are other rules that help smaller numbers beat bigger ones, or use the elemental notes or let you set up combos. Those vary from region to region and player to player though."

Cloud was happy to play a few rounds with Ventus to show him how the game worked in action while answering any questions he could answer. It was the best way to learn a game like this after all.
