🃏 Snap Card Game

A simple 2 player Snap card game built in Java and played in the command line.

Players take turns drawing cards. If two consecutive cards share the same symbols (e.g. two Kings or two 7s), the current player must type 'snap' within 2 seconds to win.

🎮 How to Play

3. Enter both players' names.
4. The game automatically creates and shuffles the deck, then randomly selects who goes first.
5. Players press ENTER to draw cards.

   • Incorrect or late responses result in no points.
7. The player earns 1 point for each correct Snap, and the highest score wins.
