One of many possible game scenarios: Shuffle the three decks of cards from the set (with the names of the professions, descriptions of the professions, and pictures of the competitions) and deal the participants of the game with 9 cards. The remaining cards should be placed face down in the center of the table. The goal of the game is to create as many matching cards as possible (job name - job description - job illustration).
