The questions of the game vary from the history of Singapore to the Architecture features/history of the surrounding buildings. Some questions are also related to interesting facts about Singapore culture.
The rule is to use only hands or feet to move around each other to find out what is written on the board at the back of their hands. The card and hands must be placed at the back of their body at all times during the competition. The winner is determined by the number of times he/she is able to read out the words on the card by x number of participants.
