Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure you have at least two players and a clear area for physical movement. Shuffle the deck of 100 challenge cards and place the timer and the squishy banana within reach. There is no complex installation required. For care, wipe the squishy banana with a clean, damp cloth if it becomes dirty during play to maintain its grip and hygiene. Store all cards in the original box to prevent loss, and keep the banana away from sharp objects to avoid punctures to the soft material.
