"No, thank you!" - that's what you want to say when you get a card.
But you can only do that if you still have enough tiles. Because if you don't use a game stone, you get a card and you get a minus point!
Which one of you can make the smartest use of your own tiles?
If you're on the train, you have a choice:
- Either you take the card, put it open in front of you, and start with it.
or
- you reject the card by putting one of your tiles on the card.
If you decide to take the card, you will also get all the tiles on it.
Then the next card is exposed from the pile and _ You _ have the decision again.
If you reject the card, it is the next person's turn and also has the decision:
Either she puts a play stone on the card and rejects it or she takes the card and puts it in her display.
Your train will not end until you reject a card by giving a game stone.
Owning many tiles is always good to be able to reject cards. In addition, each game is a plus point at the end of the game.
If you're on the train and you don't have a play-stone, you have to take the card in the middle of the table.
Every single card in front of you counts minus points according to its value. A
"6" counts 6 minus points, "21" counts 21 minus points, etc.
You get less minus points if you can form number chains with directly consecutive values. Number chains only count as many minus points as the lowest value of the entire chain. For example, a "15," a "16," and a "17" are only 15 minutes.
If a person takes the last card from the middle of the table, the game ends.
The points in your card output are now counted together: The lowest value of the card series of the respective number chain.
To these minus points, your remaining tiles are added as plus points and give your total result.
There are red and green special cards, where the red special cards are "sold" as well as the number cards.
The green special cards are usually positive for you. For this reason, in the case of green special cards, you offer to receive the card and not to reject it.
If you decide not to put a game stone on a green special card, you will not get the card, but only the one on it.
The person on the right of you gets the green special card, that is, the person who last put a play stone on the card.
Bonus points (2x + 5, 2x + 10, 3x + 15, 2x + 20)
These cards give you the number of plus points shown at the end of the game. Recharge them at the end of the game with your minus points.
