1. Each player starts with a set of clean pigs facing up in front of them.

2. On your turn, play action cards from your hand to change the state of the pigs:

Mud Card:** Play this to flip one of your clean pigs to the dirty side.

Rain Card:** This washes all unprotected dirty pigs back to the clean side.

Barn Card:** Build a barn to protect your dirty pigs from the rain.

Farmer Card:** Use the farmer to scrub an opponent's pig clean, even if they are inside a barn.

Lightning Rod:** Attach this to your barn to protect it from lightning strikes that could destroy your shelter.

3. The game ends immediately when one player has successfully dirtied all their pigs.
