It is an educational game that aims to improve numeracy and literacy. This game is part of a series of card games released by Amigo Games and it comes in a variety of colors to suit different preferences. This game is easy to play, fast-paced, and has no Assembly Required. This article is an introduction to No Thanks! and highlights some of its features.

Gameplay:
No Thanks! is a game that involves buying and selling chips, taking cards, and trying not to lose any chips or the game. It is a combination of several card games such as Go Fish and extortion games. The game begins by placing three decks of cards with one deck as the " prize pool". Each player receives two chips from a set of five. Each player has three players to start with one chip each and four decks of five chips each. Each player adds one chip from the deck to the "price pool" with every "Thank you" said by another player to remove the card from one of the other decks, which has five possible positions in one deck. Players can take cards from any deck other than the price pool and then take a chip from the price pool to pay for their purchases. When a player cannot take a card they want from any deck, they must keep their chip in the price pool.

The game is played until either the price pool is depleted or no more than seven players have passed the turn without making a purchase. It is essential to make purchase after purchase in this game and every decision has a price and risk associated with it. Players cannot look at their opponent's hand until their turn comes or it is the turn of their leftmost player. Players cannot help other players if the chip they are taking from the price pool has not yet been played or there are not enough chips in the price pool for a purchase. It is also worth noting that if a player cannot take a card or says "Thank you" without a chip from the price pool, they must keep their chip in the price pool or their turn ends.

Rules:
Before beginning a game of NoThanks!, players choose which game to play with, who to be left or right of and which hand they want to play. A left hand and right hand refer to the order of the decks when players draw a card from one of them and place it on top of their left or right hand, depending on who made a purchase.

Players can only use the chips from the "price pool" they have available. A chip counts towards the total number of players or a run, but cannot be used during a single play of any game or as payment for any purchase made by any other player. The game ends when either all chips have been depleted from all decks or seven players have passed without a purchase being made by any of the other players or it becomes impossible to play a single hand or they must be called due to their lack of chips.

Playing with a Run:
Players can create runs using their left or right hand's cards that cannot be played with other players' left or right hand. When a run is created, all players in their left or right hand take a chip from their left or right hand. When a run is not in use by another player, they take it back to their left or right hand or from their "price pool". Runs can be created on either the left or right side of any play or card used and can only be used during one hand by any player and with one deck in the "price pool".

Amigo Games' "No Thanks!" is a great game that is both fun and educational. It teaches players to manage resources and risks while playing a game of extortion and purchasing. It is a perfect game for players aged 8 years and above who are ready to learn and play a challenging game of skill. Whether it's for family or friends, No Thanks! is an excellent choice to pass the time and enjoy the entertainment provided by playing games.
