Objective:
Score 21 points by capturing cards from the center board.
Dealing & Rounds:
The game is played in rounds. First, 6 cards are dealt, then 4 cards at a time until the deck is empty. A round ends when all cards are played, then points are tallied.
Player Actions:
On your turn, you must play exactly 1 card from your hand. Select a hand card to see your options:
- 1. Capture: Match your hand card with board card(s) of the same value. Select the matching board cards, then click 'Capture'.
- 2. Build: Toggle 'Build Mode' ON. Combine a board card with your hand card to create a larger value (e.g., a 2 + 6 = 8). You MUST hold the target card (8) in your hand! Select the cards and click 'Confirm Build'.
- 3. Trail (Drop): If you cannot or don't want to capture or build, you must leave a card on the board. Select a hand card and click 'Trail (Drop)'.
Sweeps: If you capture all cards on the board, you score 1 point (except on the last turn of a round).
