Core Rules + How to Play

Objective: Be the first to get rid of all your cards by matching prevention methods against breeding sites.

Basic rules (UNO style)

  • Match color or symbol / number
  • Specials: Skip, Reverse, +2, Wild chaos
  • Season cards change the environment
  • Empty your hand to win — don’t let Aedes hit 12

Key cards

  • Spray / Coil / Temephos / Screen — Prevention
  • Lid / Cleaning / Guppy — Water & biocontrol
  • Tire / Dragon Jar / Bin — Breeding sites
  • Green & Blue can answer Red breeding sites

Special Actions + Season Mechanics

Chaos wilds hit everyone. Seasons rewrite the climate and declare a new match color.

Special Chaotic Actions

  • Dengue Outbreak — Everyone draws 4
  • Monsoon — +2 to all players + switch to Rainy Season
  • Urbanization Boom — Swap hands with rival
  • Also: Skip, Reverse, colored +2 (next player only)

Season Cards

  • Hot Season — Breeding / stages hit harder
  • Rainy Season — Water cards clear extra Aedes
  • Urbanization — Container pressure rises
  • Play anytime → choose the next match color

Science-Based Prevention Strategies

Game effects mirror a hierarchical targeting framework used in dengue vector ecology fieldwork.

1
Survey & prioritize

Map water-holding containers; hit the highest-yielding sites first.

2
Key containers

Used tires, dragon jars, plastic bins, and household water storage.

3
Biological control

Guppy basins — fish graze larvae where water cannot be emptied.

4
Larviciding

Temephos in permanent stored water when source reduction alone is not enough.

5
Barriers & community

Screens and daytime personal protection vs day-biting Aedes; lids, scrubbing, and cleanup days cut breeding.

Dry / Hot Adults & egg bank accelerate
Wet Containers refill; flood risk rises
Urban Artificial niches multiply
