The classic Sid Sackson deduction card game returns!

The Dealer shuffles the Gem Deck and removes one card, placing it where no player may accidentally see it. This becomes the Missing Gem. The remaining cards are then dealt secretly to each player to form their hands. The players then record the information from their private cards on their personal information sheets. Left over cards that do not deal out evenly are placed face up for all players to note and record on their information sheets.

Each Gem Card has three elements—gem (diamond, pearl, or opal), color (red, yellow, blue, or green), and type (solitaire, pair, or cluster). Players use Search Cards to try to determine what cards the other players hold in their hands. For example if a player had the “Blue Opals� search card, that player could request that any other single player show them all the blue opals they hold in their hand and record this on their information sheet. Other search cards, called “one element cards,� have only one characteristic of a gem—i.e. just opals, or just blues. With these cards the interrogated player must reveal only the number of the corresponding cards they have and not reveal the cards themselves.
