Overview

Welcome to Hawaii! You’ve arrived for your vacation, and it’s time to hit the luau! As you arrive, you see a table full of beautiful and vibrant flowers. Here’s how it works: Once you find out who’s hosting the party, you’ll take flowers, leaves, nuts, and other items from the pile to string and match together the most impressive lei! Whoever has the best scoring lei when the flowers run out is the winner. You'll draw 1 card from the pile each turn. If you like it, you can string it onto your lei. If not, toss it back for someone else to take. You must string left to right, and cards only score if they're paired, or have special scoring conditions listed on them. Want to change it up? Pick 3 different hosts for each game from a group of 10+ who all offer bonus points if you meet their special scoring conditions! -description from publisher
