Set up the game for play. The Wheel Reference cards should be placed nearby. These cards will help players identify the icons on the wheel as the game is played. Deal each player seven cards. The remainder of the cards should be placed face down in the center of the wheel to be used as the draw pile. Turn over the top card of the draw pile and place it in the space for discards.
