Spell & Trap Card Zone

Spell & Trap Card Zones are the boxes with "5" in them. You can only have 5 in play at any one time, 5 face-up or face-down Spell Card and/or Trap Cards, with an additional Field Spell Card. If you have all 5 Zones occupied, to activate another Spell Card, or to Set another Spell or Trap Card from your hand, one of your Spell or Trap Cards needs to be removed from the field.
