5. How to Play (Operating)
Rema tu Cabra is a game of speed and observation. The objective is to be the first player to get rid of all your cards.
- Playing Cards: Players take turns placing their Boat Cards onto the central grid. The goal is to create lines of three matching cards.
- Three cards of the same color.
- Three cards with the same type of boat (e.g., three rafts, three rowboats, three inner tubes, three surfboards).
- Spotting Matches: As soon as you see a line of three matching cards (either by color or boat type) on the grid, immediately slap one of the lifesaver tokens in the center.

- Consequences of Failure: If you are too slow to slap a lifesaver token after a match is made, or if you slap a token when no valid match exists, you will be penalized by having to collect additional cards. The manual states: "If you are too slow, you will end up collecting cards."
- "Row My Goat!": When you are down to your very last card, you must loudly exclaim "Row My Goat!" before playing it.
