I guess I am first here so thanks for designer and programmer bringing here for test. this is a wonderful simple puzzle style abstract 15 minute or less for 2-5. I played this and loved it for starter at big game group. The one thing I didn't like was that in the name track corner it shows cards in hand right before your quantity off 1s,2s,3s,5s scored. Having the highest amount of 1s at end of game is a 3 pt bonus which is a game breaker, so it is very important to know the quantity of 1 point cards your opponents have. with the cards in hand right before it and cramped easy to miss. In this game you always refill to 4 at end of turn. the only other time you will hold a different number is if you SKIP your turn to get 6 which rarely pays off with the shared table constantly changing. IF you skip it shows that in the turn log. MY suggestion it to remove it completely or put on a separate line or make it red yellow blue or some other color so the very first black m=number you read is your 1s scored. there is no player card interaction so no tracking necessary of in hand
