The Coloured Space Game

Number of Players: 2+ (including 1 person taking scores)

Starting position:

Both players get a *made-up* stack of 10 boards.

For each player that's playing, they get:

10/10 boards

0/10 snizzle and whip points

2 x Corner the Greens "1's"

1 x Corner the Greens "2's"

(1's and 2's will be explained later)

Rules:

The winner is the player that gets rid of all of their opponents other boards.

Play continues until only one player is left.

Method:

The first turn both players must "stack their boards".

After that you can do one of the following:

· Use a "Corner the Greens 1" (explained below)

· Use a "Corner the Greens 2" (explained below)

· Use a “Corner the Greens 3” (explained below)

· Use “Snizzle and Whip”: This adds a snizzle and whip point to your opponents score. Once their number gets to 10/10 points you automatically win the game.

Explanation of Corner the Greens "1's" and "2's"

1's and 2's are used to either add boards to your stack or take away snizzle and whip points.

To use to it you have to say, “Corner the Greens (Boards/Points) 1.” (2 or 3)

1 adds one board to your stack.

2 adds two boards to your stack.

You only have two "1's" to use and one "2" so be careful where you use them. (Also, keep count on the score sheet of each player’s 1 and 2’s.)

For example:

Corner the Greens (Boards) 1 = I don't take one from the opponent but I add one board to my own stack.

Corner the Greens (Points) 1 = I don't give a point to the opponent but I discard a point from my own stats.

1 and 2 are very useful when running low on boards, or too high on ‘snizzle and whip’ points.

Explanation of Corner the Greens "3”

This is the big one, when you ‘Corner the Greens 3’ you take a board away from your opponent.

Example: (Their score)

10/10 boards

‘I Corner the Greens 3’

9/10 boards

Once this gets to 0 you win.

Recap of Corner the Greens.

1: Add one board or remove one point from your score (Can only be done twice)

2: Add two boards or remove two points from your score (Can only be done once)

3: Takes away one of your opponent’s boards)

Example start

I have elected Player 1 as the score taker.
The taking of boards will just be called "Corner the Greens" and the giving of points "Snizzle and Whip".

P1: I'll take the scores for this game.
P2: Very well.
P1: I've stacked my boards.
P2: I've stacked my boards.
P1: P1's name: 10/10 boards

0/10 Points

P2's name: 10/10 boards

0/10 Points

P1: Corner the Greens 3

P2: Snizzle and Whip 3

In this case, P1 has taken 1 board from P2 whereas P2 has given 1 snizzle and whip point to P1.

P1: P1's name: 10/10 boards

1/10 Points

P2's name: 9/10 boards
0/10 Points

P1: Corner the Greens (Points) -1
P2: Corner the Greens (Boards) 1

now in this case; P1 has discarded 1 point, whereas P2 has regained a board.
They both have lost a Corner the Greens 1. (1/2)

P1: P1's name: 10/10 boards

0/10 Points

1/2 1's

P2's name: 10/10 boards

0/10 Points

1/2 1's
