== Overview ==

'''Matchstick Tycoon''' is a '''ladder climbing game''' for {{player|2}} to {{player|8}} players. It's played with a deck of 56 cards representing 7-segment display style '''hexadecimal numbers''' (ranging from {{card|0|color=blue}} to {{card|F|color=orange}}, the deck containing '''4 copies''' of each value). A unique addition to the genre is introduction of '''matchsticks''' that can be used to modify the numbers by '''filling empty segments'''.

== Gameplay ==

At the start of the game the deck is distributed as evenly as possible between the players, and each player receives 1 matchstick. Then, players in clockwise order take turns '''playing a number of cards of the same value''' from their hands to the table. There are 2 possible cases:

* 🎴 If there are '''no cards''' on the table, current player must play '''1 to 5 cards''' of any single value.
* 🎴 '''Otherwise''', current player must follow with the '''same number''' of cards of '''stronger value''' than the previous player, or '''pass'''.

Default '''card strengths''' at the start of the game are '''increasing with value''', with {{card|F|color=orange}} being the strongest card.

When playing a card, it's possible to '''rotate and/or place matchsticks''' on it to make it look and act like another value.

When '''passing''', a player takes another '''matchstick from supply'''. If everyone except the player who '''played the last cards''' passes, all cards are '''removed''' from the table.

If a player whose turn it is '''doesn't have''' any more cards in hand, but still has matchsticks, he/she must instead '''discard one of the matchsticks'''.

== Revolution ==

Any time '''5 cards''' are played simultaneously, a '''revolution''' happens, causing reversal of card strengths (if previously the strongest value was {{card|F|color=orange}}, {{card|0|color=blue}} becomes strongest, and vice versa). Then, the play continues as usual with the next player, who can cause a new '''revolution''' in the same way by following with '''another 5 cards'''.

== Game End ==

The game continues until all players except a single one go out by '''getting rid of all their cards and matchsticks'''. The players are ranked accoring to the '''order''' in which they went out.

== Expansion ==

An expansion to the game adds '''two new card values''', {{card|H|color=orange}} and {{card|G|color=orange}}. It's possible to choose, whether to add 2 copies, or 4 copies of each new card to the deck.
