Description

Each player receives a card with two sides: "Same" and "Different". Before playing a round of Rock, Paper, Scissors, players secretly choose a side of the card to indicate their prediction—whether both players will throw the same hand or different ones. After concealing their prediction, they play Rock, Paper, Scissors with their free hand. Once the round concludes, players reveal their predictions. Points are awarded in two ways: 1 point for winning the Rock, Paper, Scissors round, and additional points for a correct prediction — 1 point for predicting "Different" correctly, and 2 points for predicting "Same" correctly. The objective is to accumulate the most points over a series of rounds.
