In 10 Dwarves, players take on the roles of dwarves from the Snow White novel. Each player has a character card with a one-time special ability. On your turn, you draw two face-down cards, keep one, and return the other. You then explain how the two cards relate, such as which is higher. Before drawing, you can guess the card another player holds. The game continues only if the sequence is correct.
