## Rules questions

### How does drafting work — do we pick cards face-down or face-up, and which way do we pass the hands?

Each round everyone secretly chooses one card from their hand (face-down) and then all players reveal simultaneously; after revealing, pass the remaining hands to the left (standard) and repeat until hands are empty (Rulebook, p.4; summary list, p.12).

### If I play a Wasabi, can I put more than one Nigiri on it or use it after playing other cards?

A wasabi triples the score of one subsequent nigiri only — you may place a single nigiri on a wasabi to get triple value (one nigiri per wasabi) (Rulebook, p.5; nigiri/wasabi scoring, p.9).

### How do Chopsticks work — how do I take two cards and what happens to the Chopsticks card?

When you play Chopsticks you may later use it instead of taking one card to take two cards from your hand (announce 'Sushi Go!'), then return the Chopsticks card to your played area (Rulebook, p.6).

### How are Maki rolls scored and what happens if players tie for first or second?

Count maki icons; the player with the most maki gets 6 points and the second-most 3 points; if players tie they split the combined points for those places (ignore remainders), and a player must have at least one maki to score (Rulebook, p.7).

### When do we score Pudding and do they get discarded between rounds?

Puddings are scored only at the end of the game (after all rounds); the most puddings scores +6 and the fewest −6 (ties split), and they are not discarded between rounds — note the 2-player exception for negative scoring (Rulebook, p.9; end-of-game pudding scoring, p.10).

### What happens to the last card in each hand at the end of a round — do we still play it?

Yes — when only one card remains in each hand players simultaneously place that final card into their play area, then score the round; after scoring all non-pudding cards are discarded to prepare for the next round (Rulebook, p.6; discard/pudding exception, p.9).
