RULES:
The object of the game is to be the first player to get all 4 your pawns from your start to your home. Lay out the board and each player picks a color and places those pawns on their matching colored start space. Shuffle the cards and place them on the board as a draw deck. The youngest player goes first, then play proceeds clockwise. On your turn, discard 1 card from the top of the draw deck to the discard pile and do what it says, then your turn ends and the next player goes.
If the draw deck runs out of cards, then shuffle the discard into a new draw deck. You may only move a pawn out of your start space with a 1, 2, or sorry! Card.
Pawns move from the start space down, then clockwise around the outside track, traveling up into the safe zone of their matching color, towards their home space. Pawns jump over any other pawn in its way, counting that space. If you land on the same space as another player’s pawn, then bump that pawn back to its owner’s start space. Other than the start and home spaces, pawns of the same color may not share a space. If your only available move is to land on a space already occupied by one of your own pawns, then you do not move. Anytime you are unable to move, your turn ends and the next player goes. If you have a legal move, then you must move, even if you don’t want to.
Any time you land by exact count on the triangle at the beginning of your color slide, then slide ahead to the end and bump any pawns in your way, including your own, back to their start spaces. If you land in the middle of a slide, or on a triangle for a slide that isn’t your color, then you do not slide.
Only pawns of the matching color can enter a safety zone. You are not allowed to move into a safety zone by a backwards move. Though, you are allowed to move out of a safety zone from a backwards move. You are not allowed to move your pawn past the entrance to your own safety zone when moving forward around the board. You must move all your pawns to your home space by exact count. Once a pawn reaches home, that pawn may no longer move.
All the cards say what they do, but some additional clarification is needed as follows:
7. If you slit your move to get a pawn home, you must be able to use the remaining balance on another pawn otherwise you may not perform the move. You may not use a seven to get a pawn out of start.
11. If you are unable to move forward 11 spaces and you do not want to change places with another player’s pawn, then you do not need to trade places and instead forfeit your turn. You can only switch pawns in the outer track, you may not switch with those in start, home, or a safety zone. If you switch with a pawn on a slide of your color, immediately perform the slide.
Sorry. If there is no pawn on your start or no opponent’s pawn on any legal space you can move to, then you forfeit your turn.
The first player to get all 4 of their pawns to their home wins!

I don’t forgive this guy for making this comment

Sorry is the name of the board game

[@KDeziree]

Thank you for the very straightforward directions for game rules! You made it easy for first time players! We had lots of fun 🎉

[@LeotheTiger1234]

There is also a variation for adults where you can play for points, and another where you shuffle and deal 5 cards to each player. Then the rest of the cards become the draw deck. After you play a card of your choice, draw 1 card to bring your hand back to 5. Such rules were present in the version I own, which has the old rules including the fact you do not slide on your own color, but you do slide on a different color.

[@waltercardcollector]

I remember the old slide rules. I believe they changed it from "don't slide on your own color" to "do slide on your own color" because they also changed the colors of the slides on the board to have the three colors that do slide on them as opposed to just the one color that doesn't slide on them.

[@LeotheTiger1234]

@@waltercardcollectorI can understand that.

[@SonicXRage]

That sounds much more fun.

[@LoveKirbythecutepinkball]

One more, if a “sorry” card is a move forward 4, instead of bumping opponent's pawn, you may move your pawn that is in play 4 spaces

[@bambinazo123]

Isn't this basically parchis/ludo + candyland?

[@tranmanhuc6235]

it's a bit sad that the DRAW AGAIN rule on 2 cards are removed - and why Sorry! cards allow a 4-step move instead of some missing number like 6 or 9 is yet to be known

[@Tekknight007]

Because at a glance 6 and 9 are easily mixed up (according to Wikipedia).

[@MXCKAVELLIII]

question, if i pull a 1 card & place my pawn 1 space from start then my next turn i pull a move back 4 spaces card , do i return my pawn to start or move backwards 4 spaces on the board?

[@mcarthursampson6560]

Hello I notice in your video you did a slide that was not matching the same color as the pawn. Please clarify. Thank you.

[@Aikoyori]

wait so you if you get a backward and you're just outside your starting area do you go back in there or move back beyond the start space

[@Its_Zer0here]

Start is a one way gate to the game field (unless one of your pawns gets bumped there)

[@vonnessatracey5664]

What do you do when u get fire or ice?

[@josephp2109]

What happens when you land on the slide right in front of your safety zone?

[@Chwiztid]

It's not your slide because it doesn't have your color.

[@josephp2109]

@@ChwiztidI must’ve not been paying close attention bc we were playing with our kids lol

[@Approvedbyd]

What happens if I’ve been around the board and I land on my own sliding triangle? Can slide into Safety zone or do I have to slide past my safety zone?

[@Chwiztid]

It's not your slide if it doesn't have your color.

[@MightyJosh1985]

Haven't the rule changed with the cards? "A pawn can be moved out from Start upon any positive number card" Not just 1,2 or Sorry cards. Even the instructions on the new version say so. My rustic edition says "Any forward-moving card can move a pawn out of its start area."

[@inanefool8781]

Really glad to see they went back to 4 pawns, they were only including 3 pawns for a while.

[@coervat]

I need help. So I have my pawn at the end of the slide that has my color and I get a backwards 1 from the 10 card. Does the slide I am on count as one move or does the next space behind the bad count as one? Do you get what I’m saying ?

[@JohnSmith-zw8vp]

So they closed the backwards from start to shortcut to home path loophole.

[@theAstarrr]

It's still there. You can't go into home by going backward. But you CAN go backward past it. Then on your next forward move go in

[@evanrosman9226]

When I played that game as a kid we were NOT allowed to move backwards out of the safety zone.

[@j-man4317]

Yeah I just learned that I didn’t know you could move backwards at all

Sorry is popular at least in America. And if you draw 6 cards, it actually becomes strategic and a lot better than Ludo/Parchesi

Nope! Someone got there

[@Lua_101]

this game is just based out of luck, no skill

[@amandacourtney3519]

You could switch with a player and the player being benefited and you being off worse, or switch with a player and be benefitted and the other worse, you could split the 7 so you go on a slide or in a home, or just use it in the worse way possible, sure there is luck, but skill plays a equal amount of winning or losing

[@theAstarrr]

Draw 6 cards and have a hand to choose from each turn. Boom, strategy added.
