Stack 5

2–6 players · 15 min · 8+

Stack your cards cleverly... but know when to stop, or lose it all! Collect cards in column, aims for the combinations that score the most points. Be the first to score 3 points by completing valid 5-card combinations.

Draw cards one at a time, as many as you want, hoping not to reveal two with the same number. If you succeed, you add those cards to your columns; otherwise, the cards are given to another player, who will place them in their columns.

5 different numbers → 1 point

 5 identical numbers → 2 points
 5 cards of the same colour → 2 points
 5 different numbers of the same colour → 3 points (victory!)

Be aware of specials cards that come any time!
