Iota Game

Tuck this cute little tinned card game into a backpack or purse and have on-the-go fun anywhere you have two to four people with 30 minutes or so to spare. There are two wild cards plus 64 unique cards (2 x 2) each with three different properties: a shape, a color, and a number. Holding a hand of four cards, players add 1, 2, 3, or 4 cards to a single line following specific guidelines (all cards must either be all the same or all different in each individual property). A four-card line is called a lot. Scoring is based on the face values of the cards in a line plus extra points for creating lots. As the pattern grows, playing options become more and more limited. Tin measures 2.25 x 2.25 x 1.
