Overview

Olenon is a shredding game for two 👤2players-player teams. It's played with a deck of 32 number cards, consisting of:

6x0, 5x1, 5x2, 4x3, 4x4, 4x5, 4x6,

The goal of each team is to win two rounds by having one of the teammates go out by getting rid of his/her cards.

It's allowed to reveal any information to your teammate, but it must be done in the open, so that the other team also receives it.

Gameplay

At the start of a round, each player is dealt a hand of 7 cards from the deck. The remaining deck is not used in this round.

Then, the game proceeds with each player taking an action in clockwise turn order. The available actions are:

• 🎴 Play one or more cards with the same value from hand to the table. If there are already cards on the table, the newly played cards' value must be the same. In any case, there cannot be more than 4 cards on the table at the same time. When the 4th card is played (called Olenon), all 4 cards are discarded, and the current player takes another turn.
• 🎴 Replace the cards on the table with the same number of cards of a higher value. As an exeption, 6s can be replaced with 0s.
• 🎴 Pass by taking one of the cards from the table, placing it face up near your hand. Passed player doesn't take any more turns until the table is reset. This happens immediatly when both players of one of the teams have passed. Cards on the table are then discarded, passed players take the corresponding face up cards into their hands, and play continues with the player who was the last to play any cards.

When one of the players plays the last card from hand, his/her team immediately wins the round. If no team has won two rounds yet, the deck is reshuffled and the game continues with the next round.

Game End

The game ends when one of the teams wins a total of 2 rounds.
