Ralph, the Restless Rhythm Rat has rhythm in his blood. Do you too? Make the right Moves while keeping the beat, following the commands that Ralph gives you. Touch, tap or tilt him, just don’t make any mistakes! The beat gets faster and faster… A game requiring a sense of rhythm for 1-4 players from 6-99 years. Reviews: Simple but challenging. A creative use of accelerometer, which is it's only limitation, as it doesn't always recognize my gestures, but it's still very fun to play and a good way to keep your mind sharp. (ijudy)

HOW TO PLAY CANASTA The goal of Canasta is to collect as many points as possible by drawing and removing peer cards. Unlike Rummy, Canasta is not about ending the game as fast as possible. To complete a round, you need a set of seven cards which is called natural Canasta. A mixed Canasta must contain at least four equal cards. The rest can be filled with wild cards. In addition to the Joker, all 2s are considered wild cards. The wild cards can replace any other card.
