## Description

Aim of the game<br>Every player tries to have as few negative score (or as much positive score) as possible at the end of a round. Nuts count positive and the card values count negative. <br><br>Game preparation<br>All players get 11 nuts at the beginning of a round. The cards that have continuous values from 3 to 35 are shuffled and 9 cards are taken away (they are removed from the game for the current round). The other 24 cards are in the middle where the card on the top is uncovered. <br><br>The playing sequence<br>The active player can decide whether to take the uncovered card or to use one of his nut that is left that the next player&#39;s turn starts. If a player does not have nuts any more he has to take the card. Whenever a player takes a card he gets all the nuts that where used by the other players to prevent taking it. <br><br>Interesting are all these card values that make it possible to form a row, because then only the card with the lowest value counts at the end. As cards are removed at the beginning of the rounds it is not possible to form a complete row. <br><br>Additionally the opponents&#39; cards are all uncovered but their nuts are hidden. <br><br>End of the game<br>A round is finished as soon as the 24 cards are taken by the players. A game exists of one or more rounds, where it is usual to play so many rounds that every player starts a round as often as the other ones. <br><br>This game was developed by using the tjger framework (http://www.tjger.com).
