Stripes | Family-Friendly Pattern Recognition Card Games | 2-6 Players

Easy to Learn, Challenging Game

STRIPES, on the surface, seems a lot like a game called CIRCLES where you have to match stripes of certain colors. But that's about it as far as similarity. In STRIPES, you get seven cards to play with and a row of actions that can only be used once a round. The goal is to create a continuous line from one side of your row of cards to another by moving the cards up or down or swapping them out according to the gameplay. Super-simple rules, but mastery of the game? That's where it's challenging! You only get up to seven actions that can be done on any given round; once that action has been used, it cannot be played again until the next round -- actions include drawing from the deck, sliding one or two cards, stealing from the player to your right, or trading a card with anyone, so long as it's in the same location. Oh, we had a great time playing this! So much strategy involved for such a simple concept! Definitely consider buying this game. We played with three people and each game took about 20-25 minutes to play, mainly because of all the strategy and thinking ahead that was involved. I can't say enough good things about this!

Great game, easy to learn and challenging as well. The colors and visual are really pretty.
