Big Five

Animal cards must be laid out in groups. You stack your cards face down and take five in hand, one card starts the display. In your turn you can swap cards with your stack or place cards; next to a card already there, to form groups of animals of the same kind or with the same background color. One card of the newly formed group must be already in the display before. If you place the 4^th card of a group, you can discard one card from your hand or stack, if you place the 5^th, two cards. Should you place both the 4^th and 5^th card, you bonus discard is three cards. If you are first to get rid of all your cards you win. In a solo version you must place a minimum of three cards in a group or put cards on an open discard pile until only 2 are left in hand. Bonuses are set aside from your discard pile and you try to achieve a minimum of cards in your discard pile.
