Line Up

An abstract game for 2-6 players. Contents: 90 cards showing one or more lines and curves in different colours. Gameplay: The goal of the game is to have the fewest cards (ideally, none) at the end of the game. Each player receives 8 cards, the rest forms the draw pile. One card is then flipped over from the draw pile, and the start player tries to place one of her cards so that the colours line up with this card. Play then proceeds with the next player trying to line up one of his cards with one of the face-up cards. If a player cannot line up any of his cards, he draws cards until he can; if the draw pile has run out, he misses his turn instead. The game ends if one player manages to get rid of all her cards, in which case she wins, or, if no more cards can be placed, in which case the player with the fewest cards left wins.
