Abstract

- two same-size cards equally divided into tabs;
- a first card with unique symbols and opaque-colored surfaces on the front face;
- the first card has one or more symbols on selected tabs on the rear face that are identical to the same tab's symbol on the front face called the predetermined forcing tabs;
- a second card has tabs with opaque-colored surfaces on the front face that correspond with the location of the predetermined forcing tabs on the first card's front face;
- and
- the second card is entirely opaque colored on the rear face.
