Michieldewit: First version of rules summary

= Quibbles =

''2-5 players, 8+, 5 minutes per player''

== Components ==

* 132 cards, numbered 1 to 6: 20×1, 20×2, 20×3, 22×4, 24×5, 26×6

== Setup ==

# Shuffle the cards thoroughly.
# Draw 6 cards and put them in a '''face up row''' in the middle of the table.
# Deal every player a '''hand of 6''' cards.
# Form a face down '''draw pile''' from the remaining cards and put it in the middle of the table.
# Make room for a discard pile.
# Every player makes room in front of them for a '''collection''' of 6 cards.

== Goal of the game ==

To be the first player to collect cards with a total value of 21 points.

== Gameplay ==

Play in turns. When it is your turn, you first choose to either '''TAKE''' or '''PASS''' :

=== TAKE ===

'''Play 1 to 6 cards from your hand''' with a total value of 6 or less. Put them on the discard pile. Now take cards from the central row on the table in your hands.

* If you play a '''single card''', you may take all sets of 2 or more cards with the same total value as the card you played.

'''Example''': you play a 6 from your hand and now take back a pair of 3s, and a 2+4 set from the table. You leave a 1+5 set on the table, even though you were allowed to take it.

<blockquote>'''Note''': every card in the row on the table can only be part of 1 set.
</blockquote>
* If you play '''2 or more cards''', you may take all single cards with the same value as the total value of the cards you played.

'''Example''': play a 1, a 2, and a 3 and take all three 6e[[File:rules.v8-web-resources/image/Cards_62x88.png|img]]s from the table.

=== PASS ===

'''Add 1 card from your hand''' face up to the row on the table, draw 2 cards from the draw pile, and put them in your hand.

=== NEXT ===

You may optionally '''add 1 card to your collection'''. To add it, you must take '''all cards of the same value''' from your hand, with a minimum amount equal to the value of the card. Add one of them to your collection and discard the other cards.

'''In other words''': to add a 5 to your collection, you need to have at least five 5s. But for a 2 you only need two 2s.

<blockquote>'''Note''': you can have only 6 cards in your collection. If you still want to add a card to your collection, you will have to remove one card from your collection first, and put it on the discard pile.
</blockquote>
'''Example''': you take all four 4s from your hand, put one 4 in your collection and discard the remaining 4s. You now have no more 4s in your hand.

=== FINALLY ===

* '''Refill the central row''' to 6 face up cards with cards from the draw pile.
* When there are '''10 cards in the central row''', discard all cards and put 6 new face up cards on the table.
* If your '''hand is empty''', all players have to discard the cards they hold in their hands. Deal every player a hand of 6 new cards.

<blockquote>'''Note''': if the draw pile is empty, shuffle the discard pile and form a new pile.
</blockquote>
Now it is the next player’s turn.

== End of the game ==

You win as soon as you have a collection with a total value of at least 21 (for instance, a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6). The game ends immediately.
