Collect the longest dachshund possible! In Winston, players compete to collect as many dogs as possible. There are six types of dogs: the fireman, the cosmonaut, etc., and the longer the dog, the more points you get. Will you wait to collect a longer dog, or will you try to collect it before another player snatches it in front of you? On your turn, you have to play 2-5 cards, adding heads and bodies. The player who collected last the longest dog gets a wooden bone, giving extra points. The player with the shortest dog receives the wooden poo, giving minus points.
