Go! Go! Go! Guide by nyla77

Background: This is a simple game (if you use your thinking cap). It will be easy for you if you have played other card games like Cheat or even Pyramids. Keep in mind that you need to try A LOT to win.

Objective: Your aim is to get rid of all your cards (in hand, face ups, and face downs) before all three opponents to advance to the next level. This is where you need to use your own game plan to get ahead.

What happens in the game? When you start playing Go! Go! Go! It will automatically be your turn. You place a card on the existing pile (up to four cards of the same type depending on how many cards you have) and the game continues. If a player does not have a card of equal or higher value then the cards have to be picked up by that player. Below are a few hints and tips to help you win:

Guess the Card Cheats

Always choose the circle

The following is the probabilities of a certain card type appearing once a decision is made.

Wavy line: 17%
Square: 18%
Circle: 22%
Triangle: 18%
Cross: 11%
Plus sign: 14%

In conclusion, always choose the circle. It gives the biggest chance of a correct guess.

Here’s another research conducted into Guess the Card percentages by TwilightWillow

Ok so I was definitely up past midnight tonight playing Guess the Card 100 times – yes you heard me correctly – 100 times so I could get some accurate percentages on the cards. This is what I found:

Circle: 14%
Cross: 16%
Square: 10%
Triangle: 20%
Plus: 27%
Wavy lines: 13%

But here are some other things I saw: A lot of times, the cards will come in twos. For example, if the card your pet guesses is a triangle, it has roughly a 5/9 chance that he will guess triangle again immediately after. Another thing is, the plus sign was the first sign my pet guessed, cross didn’t come in until 3rd guess, wavy lines fourth, square seventh, circle tenth, and triangle twenty-first. So keep this in mind depending on how many times you plan on playing.
