In Kemps, each player tries to get 4 of the same card, then get their partner to say Kemp before another player says "stop kemp" (or another code phrase). Players usually set up some kind of signal with their partner.

Google says, "Kemps or Scenics is a matching card game for two to six teams of two players each. It is played with a standard 52-card deck."

each player gets a partner and sets up secret signals to tell the other when to say "kemp". the goal of the game is to get 4 of the same card, and get their partner to say "Kemp". if someone has 4 of the same card and their partner says "kemp", then that group gets a letter(starting with K, then E, and M, then finally P). whichever group gets "K-E-M-P" first wins. theres another twist to this game, if a person suspects another person having 4 of the same cards, they can yell "stop kemp". if the suspected person does in fact have 4 of a kind, that group loses a letter. but if they dont have 4 of a kind, the group who yelled "stop kemp" loses a letter.
