DOTS

DOTS is a rummy-style card game designed for 2–6 players. The deck is made up of three different types of cards in four colors along with three different types of wild cards. Players take turns drawing and discarding cards, aiming to form two sets of three cards. Hands are quick, usually lasting around 10 minutes, and scoring is cumulative over multiple rounds until one player reaches the winning total. The game emphasizes both luck of the draw and strategic decision-making. Players must balance holding onto potential combinations with the risk of helping opponents by discarding useful cards. With simple rules and a short playtime, DOTS is accessible for beginners while still offering depth for players who enjoy light strategy and hand management games. —description from the publisher
