INSTRUCTIONS:

The round starts with a random deck of 40 cards from all the cards you have purchased

A row of four cards is drawn

Three more cards are drawn from the bottom

When you play one of the three bottom cards and the number is added to the top blue factor

The system then checks the enabled hands to find:

  • Cards of the same suit
  • Cards of the same number
  • Cards in a straight
  • Even or odd cards depending on the card played
  • Cards of the same color

Any matching card in a hand is added to the top red multiplier

At the end of the round, the leftmost card in the row is discarded

The played card is added to the row

A new card is drawn from the stack

The round ends when there are no more cards to play

Points are counted: Points are added to those obtained in previous rounds, every 50,000 20000 points you get 1Ks

Before each round you can spend the "Ks" you have earned on buying new suits, improving hands or buy wild cards

I tried this out for 2 games. Here's some quick feedback:

  1. I found the rules/explanation kind of confusing before playing it. It turned out to be simpler than I initially thought, so maybe you can clean up the rules a bit. One confusing thing was you didn't say what the player does. Instead, you say things like, "One of the three bottom cards is played", and I couldn't tell if that meant I would play the card, or the game would do so automatically. 
  2. Overall, once I played a few rounds, I understood what was happening, and I could start making strategic choices.
  3. I felt things were pretty slow most of the time, and I wanted the system to count up my score a lot faster. It takes quite a long time to show each of the conditions, and the score. 
  4. After two games, I still didn't have enough to buy anything. And the "vanilla" version isn't really interesting enough to make me want to play a 3rd game with just the base rules. I imagine 50K score comes easier later, which is why those points are so expensive. But maybe consider making the first few points cheaper, so I can get an upgrade after one or two games, assuming I play reasonably well.

Thank you. I will check you feedback for an update
