The Deck:

The game comes with a deck of transparent cards that have different shapes and colors. Each player will be dealt a certain number of cards, depending on the number of players.

Starting the Game:

To begin, each player takes turns placing their cards on the table, trying to layer them in a way that creates a Swish. Players can rotate and flip the cards to fit them together perfectly.

Scoring:

Points are awarded for each Swish. For every Swish made, the player receives one point. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins!

5.

Keep Track of Time:

Swish Junior is a fast-paced game, so keep an eye on the timer! The game is played in rounds, and each round has a time limit. Make as many Swishes as you can before time runs out.

6.

Enhance Your Skills:

As you become more experienced, you can level up by adding complexity to the game. For example, you can increase the number of cards or decrease the time limit. This will challenge you to think even faster and make more Swishes.

What’s the Goal of the Game?

The objective of the game is to collect cards by creating Swishes. The player with the most cards at the end of the game wins.

What is a Swish?

A Swish is made when you stack two or more cards on top of each other in a way that the solid shapes perfectly match the shape and color outlines.

To create a Swish, you can rotate or flip the cards, but they need to be lined up in the same direction so that the blue borders align.

When you make a correct Swish, every solid shape will fit perfectly into an outline of the same shape and color. No shapes or outlines will be left unmatched.

Here are some examples of a correct Swish:

Let’s take a look at some examples of an incorrect swish. These examples will show you what not to do when performing a swish technique. With these in mind, you’ll be able to improve your swish and see better results. So, let’s dive in!

Example 1:

Imagine I want to change the image of myself being shy to being confident and outgoing. I start by picturing myself in a situation where I feel confident and outgoing. Then, I quickly swish that image with the image of myself being shy. However, instead of seeing myself as confident and outgoing, I still see myself as shy. This means that the swish didn’t work and I need to try again.

Example 2:

Let’s say I want to change my negative thoughts about a certain situation to positive thoughts. I imagine the negative thoughts floating away and being replaced by positive thoughts. However, when I try to swish the negative thoughts with the positive ones, the negative thoughts keep coming back. This means that the swish wasn’t successful and I need to find a different approach.

Example 3:

Suppose I want to change my belief that I’m not good enough to a belief that I am capable and worthy. I imagine myself doing something amazing and feeling proud. Then, I quickly swish that image with the image of myself feeling unworthy. Unfortunately, even after performing the swish, I still believe that I’m not good enough. This shows that the swish didn’t have the desired effect and I need to try a different method.

These examples demonstrate the importance of understanding how to perform a swish correctly. While the swish technique can be powerful, it’s not foolproof and may require experimentation and adjustment. It’s crucial to pay attention to the details and make sure the swish is done properly in order to achieve the desired outcome.

I noticed that the green leaf doesn’t have an outline, and the purple circle’s outline is missing a solid purple circle.

When I find two cards that match perfectly, I don’t fill in the shape and color outline. It doesn’t create a Swish.

Getting Ready

Find a flat playing area where we can all see. It’s best to play on a light-colored surface.

Hey there! I’ve got a fun game to explain to you. So, in this game, the player with a birthday that’s closest to today’s date gets to be the dealer. How cool is that? The dealer shuffles the deck and puts 12 cards on the table, arranged in three rows of four. That’s called the “board”.

Now, the dealer keeps the rest of the cards in a stack. This stack is called the “draw pile”. Exciting, right?

Let’s Play!

1. The dealer starts the game by shouting “Go!”
2. Now, here’s the tricky part. All the players need to look at the board and find something called a “Swish”. But wait! You can’t touch the cards while searching for a Swish. Keep those hands still!
3. As soon as you spot a Swish, shout “Swish”! The moment someone says that, everyone has to pause and stop looking for any more Swishes.

I’m going to teach you how to play a fun game called “Swish.” The objective of this game is to find and collect cards that match a particular pattern. Here’s how you play:

1. The person who called “Swish” will choose a card and place it on top of another card already on the board. It’s important that everyone else pays attention and verifies if a valid “Swish” has been made. If it’s a valid “Swish,” the person who made it gets to keep all the cards involved in the “Swish” in their own pile.

2. The player who found the “Swish” will now replace the cards that were used from the board with new cards from the draw pile. As long as there are enough cards in the draw pile, the board should always have 12 cards.

3. The game continues, and all the players keep looking for “Swishes.”

4. The game ends when the draw pile runs out of cards, and there are no more “Swishes” that can be made with the cards on the board.

It’s easy to lose a card during the game, but don’t worry! Just use another card that matches the missing one from the draw pile.

So, are you ready to have some fun with “Swish”? Let’s get started and see who can find the most “Swishes”!

Hey, slow down before you accuse someone of making a “Swish”! You wouldn’t want to lose a card yourself! There are three situations where you have to give up a card from your score pile and put it back in the draw pile. But don’t worry, if you haven’t collected any cards yet, this rule doesn’t apply to you.

You have to give up a card if:

1. You touch the cards before saying “Swish!”
2. You take too long to find a Swish after saying “Swish!” Once you call it, you have to point out the cards that make the Swish right away.
3. You choose cards that don’t actually make a Swish. In this case, you have to put the cards back on the board, and the game continues.

Feeling stuck?

If I think that there’s no Swish in play, I can ask the dealer to swap out 4 of the 12 cards on the board. The dealer will replace them with new cards from the draw pile. After this, the 4 old cards should be shuffled back into the draw pile. But it doesn’t happen very often, so keep a close eye on the cards!

Here’s a helpful hint: the shapes and colors on the cards are always arranged in the same way. This can make it easier to spot potential Swishes.

When you look at the card, you can’t miss the vibrant burst of orange in the form of the starburst outline. I always find it fascinating how these bursts grab my attention in an instant. And guess what? They will always be orange, no matter what.

Guess what? You’re in for a treat! The magical circles on this card, along with their outlines, are always going to be a beautiful shade of PURPLE. And that’s not all – they always show up right at the center of the card, at the top and bottom. How cool is that? It’s like having a little burst of magic right there on your card, and it’s something that will never change. So, whenever you see this card, you can always expect those lovely purple circles waiting for you!

The leaf and its outlines will always be green and will appear on the sides of the card, right in the middle. The arrow and its outlines will always be blue and will appear in the middle of the card.

The Game’s End

To determine the winner, each player counts the cards in their own score pile. Every card is worth one point. The player with the most cards is declared the winner!

Advanced Gameplay

Did you know that you can make Swishes with up to nine cards? These bigger Swishes are worth more points since they add more cards to your score pile. Challenge yourself to find three-card Swishes or even four-card Swishes. With practice, you’ll become skilled at spotting Swishes using more and more cards.
