Quartet is a card game where you try to gather complete sets of cards that teach you about the digital world. The deck has 40 cards, divided into 10 sets based on themes like digital literacy, digital health, and wellness.
Here’s how to play:
Set Up: Mix up the cards and deal them out to everyone playing. If there are extra cards, place them in the middle of the table ( E.g. 4 players each with 10 cards or 6 players with 6 cards each and 4 on the table).
Goal: Your aim is to collect as many full sets of four related cards as possible. Each set teaches you about a different part of being smart and safe online.
Playing the Game:
On your turn, ask another player if they have a card you need to complete a set. You must already have one card from that set to ask for another.
Be specific when you ask (e.g., "Do you have the 'Chatroom Manners' card from the light blue set?").
If they have the card, they give it to you, and you get to ask again. If they don’t, you draw a card from the pile in the middle.
Making Sets:
When you collect all four cards in a set, show them to the other players and then put them down in front of you.
Winning the Game:
The game ends when all the sets are complete or there are no more cards to draw.
The player with the most completed sets wins!
Tips:
Remember what cards others are asking for—it might help you figure out what cards they have!
This game is a fun way to learn about how to be smart and safe online, like knowing how to protect your privacy or understanding why balance in online and offline life is important.
