How to play Tea Time in a nutshell.

Each player in turn collects one, two or three characters from the center table. These must be adjacent and in line. At least one must be collected (even if you do not like it!).

On the very first turn of the round only one character can be taken, in the second turn, maximum two.

Characters can be "normal" or "mirrored". To score does not matter if you get normal or mirrored. But if you get both, they "collide" and are discarded. Which is not necessary a bad thing because at the end of the game you score 5 points if you have no card for a character. While you get 1,3,6,10 or 15 for respectively 1,2,3,4 and 5 or more.

A round is over when all characters from the table are taken and the new first player is who got Alice. Alice is also worth 4 points at the end of the game.

Enjoy your Tea Time!
