No Cards, no possible move – Lost!

 

A card game with a simple goal: Be the last not to have lost. You lose the game either when you have no cards left after the draw phase or if you cannot move during the movement phase. If you lose you drop out of the game, but should keep cards you still might have in case you are summoned back onto the board.

In a display of 7x7 cards you place your marker on one of the starting positions, it can be one that already holds another marker. All cards in the display must be placed so that the O-Circle is not-visible. In your move you draw cards, play cards and implement them and then you move your marker. In the draw phase you draw the number of cards denoted by the number on the location of the marker. Then you play half of your cards, rounded up, one by one and immediately implement the effect of each single card. Then you move your own marker one step in any direction denoted by the arrows on the location of the marker. If the all point out of the board or if you stand on an O-Circle, you have lost. If you must move your marker onto a card with one more other markers you must give a card to each of the owners of the markers. If you do not have enough cards or no cards left afterwards, you have lost, too. You can only lose if you run out cards in your own turn, not by implementations of other player’s cards. But you lose, if you would have to move due to a card played by somebody else and cannot do so.

A somewhat malicious and funny fast game, where you have to be on your toes throughout, even as regards to your own cards, to not lose and go Out!
