Balancing Act is a quick playing card game where players are creating Circus Acts by playing a card from their hand and taking all the cards in the center row that are either higher valued or lower valued than that card they played. Those cards either go in their Acts creating sequential runs of cards or into their hands to be played later. Beware though you can only have so many Acts that score positive points and every card in your hand scores you negative points!

There are some special cards in the game:

The Elephant when played allows to you play a card from your hand to one of your Acts. This is the only way you can play a card from your hand.
The Zebra is a wild card and worth +1 point in your Acts, but prevents you from playing cards after it.
The Giraffe is wild as well, however it is -2 points.


The game ends when the deck of 54 cards runs out and whoever has the most points is the winner!
