6 nimmt!

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Choose sequential cards for rows simultaneously, but avoid adding the 6th card! 

3-10 Players  |  45 Mins  |  Ages 8+

Features: Hand Management, Kill Steal, Score-and-Reset Game, Simultaneous Action Selection

Theme: Card Game, Numbers

Description: 

Not a Game for the Bullheaded!

You start with 10 cards, ranked between 1 and 104. Each round, you must add a card to one of 4 active rows.

If you play the 6th card in a row, you must take the first 5 cards in that row.

This is not a good thing! You get penalty points for each bull head on these cards. The player with the least bull heads wins.

A quick, fun, fast-paced game for young and old.
