Description

Parallel is a 2-4 player, light-weight, matching game of perspective and tactics. Play consists of being dealt four randomized Planet cards with the goal of matching them to goal card in the center. This means that each players goal is unique to their perspective of the goal card. After the cards have been dealt, each player stands their cards, keeping them secret. Each round consists of checking for matches, and execution of actions until one player claims victory by entering their turn with all 4 Planets cards in the correct position.

Components: - 16 Playing Cards - 16 Card Stands - 9 Goal Cards - 1 Rules Box
