Description

Parallel is a 2-4 four player light-weight matching card game of deduction and strategy. Play consists of being dealt (4) randomized playing cards; followed by the clockwise execution of various actions in a race to match the goal card in the center. This means that each players goal is unique to their perspective of the goal card. After the cards are dealt, each players stands them keeping them secret. Each round consists of checking for matches, and execution of actions until one player claims victory. Players begin with (4) action tokens and lose one for every match. Action tokens replenish at the beginning of each players turn, after their first turn.

Their are two types of actions. The Swap and Switch actions effect your cards, while the Flip and Spin action effect the goal card. This is important because players cannot win on the same turn as manipulating their own cards. This means, in order to win, a player must come into their turn having 4 matching, a winning board state, or have the ability to Flip or Spin the goal card into a winning position. Winning a round grants a VP token.
