Calculation with cards

Calculation with cards - there are 48 so-called number cards, comprising four cards each of numbers 0 to 9 and for + and - signs; there are also 14 mission cards.

Those number cards are shuffled, and each player is dealt seven cards; the rest of the cards is stacked face-down. You place your cards openly on the table. Aim of the game is to be first to get rid of all your cards.

For each round, a mission card is turned up. Should this card demand drawing of one card, all players draw a card in turn, add it to their display and then a new mission card is turned up. Then, all in turn have one move, beginning with the player you revealed the mission card, and try form a multiple of the number on the mission card with their cards. You can play one card, e.g. 6 or 9 for a multiple of 3, or combine two cards into a 2-digit number, e.g. 2 and 7 for 27, or use several cards including + and - card, e.g. 7+2+1 for a result of 6. You are not allowed to form a number or play it as only card that was already used by another player in this way - e.g., if a player displayed 7-1=6 for a 3 in the mission card, I cannot place 36 or 4+2, but I could play 6+3=9. If you use + and - cards, you cannot form 2-digit numbers, some mission cards forbid use of + and - cards, and you cannot form 0 or negative numbers for results. It is possible, to use all seven cards in one turn and to win instantly.

As an alternative to playing one or several cards you can draw one card and display it.

Multiple offers simple calculation and a well-working competition, albeit only for players you like to calculate quickly in a number range of 1 to 99.
