This is a monthly card game in which players play with the Crescent Moon to test their knowledge of the lunar cycle.

In this game, players must connect the phases of the moon cycle to score points. Defeating the moon will give you bonus points.

The game Rise of the Half moon consists of 3 rounds. In which, players need to flip and link cards in turn to gain points before the Half moon.

There are 3 ways to link cards: phase pairs, full moon pairs and lunar cycles. For phase pairs, you will score 1 point. You will score 2 points if you successfully link full moon pairs.

In particular, with the lunar cycle, you can link 3 or more cards and win points corresponding to the number of successfully linked cards.

With the moon phase linking, you will get higher score and win easily.

In addition to the points scored during the game, at the end of the game, players will receive 1 point for each card they capture.

Complete all 3 games and you will win by getting closer to the moon.

Google Doodle also provides a lot of interesting information about the Crescent Moon. Specifically, the crescent moon is scientifically known as the quarter moon.

People often call a quarter moon a crescent moon because it looks like half of the moon is present. However , in reality only a quarter of the moon is illuminated.

After the first quarter moon, the moon enters a waning phase and gets brighter and brighter until the next full moon. And after the last quarter moon, the moon enters a waning phase, darkening to a new moon.

Google Doodle also provides you with a moonrise calendar that makes it easy to track the lunar cycle.
