Objective

First to reach 100 points wins.

Setup

There are 135 chips with values 1 through 10. Put them all in a face-down pile.

How to play

At the beginning of your turn, sum the values of all your chips and add that to your score. Remove those chips from the game. (this will be 0 for the first turn of the game).

Then, draw chips until:

  • you draw a chip whose value matches a chip you already have
  • you decide to stop

When you draw a chip whose value matches a chip you already have, remove from the game all the chips you have drawn this turn. If you‘ve drawn 3 chips or less this turn you receive a diamond. 3 diamonds and you‘ll automatically score 50 points, those diamonds are removed from the game. Then your turn ends.

When you decide to stop, you steal each chip owned by your opponents that match the values of any chip you‘ve drawn this turn. Then your turn ends.

2-7 Players

There are 16 of each chips of values 1-5 and 11 of each chips of values 6-10.
