📖 About This Game

Shingo is a set collecting game wherein 2-6 players try to score points by adding counters to a playmat that correspond to the same symbol and location on cards that they build a hand of during the game. The game starts with a stack of cards being placed face down in the middle of the table, and three cards being peeled off and laid face up adjacent to the stack. On each player's turn they select a card from the three face up ones and add it to their hand, and after doing so add a counter or counters to their playmat, according to whether they have a pink star in that location on the card they've picked up. If they have stars in multiple locations on the card, they add a counter to each of those locations on their playmat, whether or not they have a counter there already from a previous turn, and regardless of whether or not there is a nought or a cross in that location on another card. Once every player has a hand of seven cards, the game ends and the players add up their points. For more info on scoring and other points, please follow the link to the rules file.
