To celebrate its 25 years of success, the famous 6 card game that takes returns in this special version featuring 28 additional cards and a score block.

Open a fifth line, increase its capacity to 7 or exchange a card,... so many actions that may be able to save the day and prevent you from taking his damn oxheads!

Principle of the game

The rules are the same as for 6 which takes but you only play 2 rounds.

Indeed, in addition to having the classic Number cards, you also have special cards.

The object of the game is to have the fewest oxheads at the end of the game.

Number cards have 2 values, a numerical value (from 1 to 104) and a value from 1 to 7 represented by "ox heads".

Each round starts with 4 randomly drawn cards that will form 4 rows.

In these rounds, each player is dealt 12 Number cards and 3 special cards at random.

Players then choose a card from the 12 Number cards and lay it face down.

The Number cards are then placed in one of the 4 rows from the smallest to the largest.

After a while, some rows will contain 5 cards, and when one of the players puts their card in sixth place, they take all 5 cards and put their card in first place.

When a player places a card smaller than the ones already on the table, they pick up the row of their choice (normally the one with the fewest oxheads).

The first round ends when all players have finished playing their number cards.

Players are dealt the same number of cards again and a second round is played.

Special cards are used when placing Number cards in the rows.

The player can play his special card and then place his Number card according to the rules of the card.
