📖 About This Game
Commonality is a family card game about collecting stuff you find in common. Find the commonality between things and collect sets of common images.
The compact, travel-friendly game comes with 150 cards showing a variety of images.
Setup:
Lay nine cards faceup in a 3x3 stockpile
Maintain a draw pile
Deal three secret cards to each player
Maintain a reserve area in front of each player.
Game Play:
On each player’s turn, a player can perform one of the following actions first:
Moves a card from the stockpile to their “reserve”
Discards a secret card and replaces it with a new card from the draw pile
Steals a visible card from an opponent’s reserve to their reserve
Finally, if possible …
Reveals and collects a set.
Once the draw pile has been depleted, shuffle the discard pile into a new draw pile.
Continue playing until no draw cards remain or are playable.
The winner has the most cards. In case of a tie, the youngest player wins.
Set Collection:
Players use one or more of their secret cards along with one or more reserve cards to make a set of at least three cards. Explain the connection between all these cards then flip upside down as a collection. Draw one or more new cards to maintain three secret cards.
