Using the cards in your hand, try to construct a headline that earns lots of points, or even better, makes everyone laugh. Headlines may be funny. Headlines may be unbelievable, but headlines must be structurally sound, as in "Blind Dog Weeps for Mayor".
Man Bites Dog is played for laughs, not for tactical, strategic, or educational purposes. If you are a fan of the Onion or if you smile while reading headlines at the grocery store, or if you have company coming and don't know what to do, buy this game.
We've had lots of fun making up rules variations, such as 7 Card Stud Dog. Send us yours !
