Ouch!*

Choose a cactus card and decide which side to touch. When you flip it, you might receive a beautiful bouquet or a prickly sting on your finger!

Players take turns selecting the cactus cards with the prettiest flowers for their collection. Before picking a card, they must indicate which side they will touch and then flip it. If the back is clear, they can collect the card and the corresponding flowers; if it's covered in spikes, they lose the card. The game ends when someone retains eight cards or the stack runs out, and the player with the most flowers wins.
