    Shuffle each deck of cards, then put them into 2 piles. Put them in the center so all the players can reach them, and keep the piles separate so the cards don’t get mixed together. You’ll be grabbing cards from each pile throughout the whole game, so make sure everyone can get to them!
    • Each How-To Title Card features the title of a real wikiHow article.
    • Each Image Card features an image pulled straight from a real wikiHow article.

    It can be any one of your friends! Maybe the person youngest gets to go first this time, or perhaps the person who read a wikiHow article most recently can be the judge. The judge will rotate every round in a clockwise direction, so don’t worry if you aren’t picked this time.

Method 3 of 10:

    Have the judge hand out the cards to everyone. The judge should also give themselves 7 cards. Everyone can look at their own cards, but keep them a secret from the other players for now.

Turn over an Image Card and place it face up.

    Have the judge flip this card. The Image Card will show you a funny wikiHow image. Every player (except for the judge) should look at the Image Card and start thinking about which card in their hand they want to pair with it.

Method 5
Method 5 of 10:
Pick a How-To Title Card to match the Image Card.

    Players can choose any card from their hand to play. Try to pick a card that matches the feeling, situation, or meaning of the Image Card. Have every player place their How-To Title Card face down on the table for now.
    • If you’re the judge, just chill out for now—you aren’t going to submit a How-To Title Card this round.

Method 6
Method 6 of 10:
Shuffle the How-To Title Cards and read them aloud.

    It’s time for the judge to judge! The judge grabs all the How-To Title Cards and shuffles them together without peeking. Then, they flip them over and read them all out loud.
    • If you submitted a How-To Title Card, now’s your time to persuade the judge to pick it! Anything goes (no, really—anything!).

Method 7
Method 7 of 10:
Pick the best How-To Title Card that fits the Image Card.

    The judge can choose a winner based on anything they want. It could be the silliest card, the most fitting card, or even the most ridiculous card. If the judge chose your card, take the Image Card and keep it next to your face up for the rest of the game.
    • Take the used How-To Title Cards and put them into a discard pile for now.

Method 8
Method 8 of 10:
Draw a new How-To Title Card.

    All players should have 7 cards in their hands. If you played a How-To Title Card in the previous round, reach over and grab a new one before the next round starts. If you were the judge, you don't need to draw a new card.

Method 9 of 10:
Win the game by collecting 5 Image Cards.

Article SummaryX

wikiHow to Meme is a goofy 3-12 player card game where players try to be the first to win 5 Image Cards by matching how-to titles with funny wikiHow images. To set up the game, place the Image Cards and How-To Title Cards in two separate piles in the middle of the playing area. Choose one player to be the first judge. The judge deals 7 How-To Title Cards face down to each player, including themselves, and flips an Image Card face up in the middle of the playing area. Every player except for the judge chooses a How-To Title Card from their hand that they feel best matches the face up Image Card. Players pass their cards face down to the judge, who then shuffles all of the players’ chosen cards together, turns them face up, and reads them out loud. The judge chooses their favorite card combination and awards the Image Card for that round to the player whose card they chose. Players can try to convince the judge to choose their card, and the judge can choose a card on any basis they like. At the end of a round, each player draws a new How-To Title Card, and the judge moves to the next player in a clockwise direction. The next judge flips over a new Image Card to start the next round. Whoever gets 5 Image Cards first wins!
