Each of us has skeletons in the closet. Some have many, but they are small, while others have one that takes up the whole closet. Regardless of size and quantity, it is high time to get rid of these sins!
About the game
"Sins" is a fun card game for a group of 3 to 6 people. And it is as simple as boiled turnip! In this game, you and the other players need to get rid of sin cards from your hand as quickly as possible and reset your level of vice: lay a card on the table, apply its effect against other players, and be ready for a "counterattack" to come at any time.
How to play?
In the deck, you will find 52 sin cards: 49 cards of seven well-known sins (suits) of varying severity (with values from 1 to 7), the "Corruption" card, which helps you strengthen the effect of your mischief, as it is a joker and counts as any suit. Also, there is the "Halo" card, which frees you from cards in hand and reduces your level of vice, and the "Innocence" card, which helps you obtain the "Halo" card.
At the beginning of the game, all "sinners" receive vice counters and set them to the maximum value of 6. The "Halo" card is placed face up in the center of the table, the other cards are shuffled and placed in a deck next to the "Halo" card face down. Then players draw from the deck as many cards as their vice value, which is 6. Determine the first player – they draw one additional card. And now the SINFUL GAMES begin!
The turn starts with playing sin cards: you can play one or several cards from your hand. If you play several, they must adhere to one of the rules: all cards of one suit or all cards of one value, or all cards with values in ascending order (for example, from 2 to 5). Then the effect stated on the top played card is applied. This is a mandatory condition. After that, the played cards are sent to the discard pile. Next, the level of vice is checked: at this stage, each player with no cards in hand reduces their level of vice by one level. That’s it! After all these simple manipulations, players draw cards from the deck until their number in hand equals the value of their vice, and the next round begins. Just as Dante Alighieri bequeathed.
Who won?
To win, you need to become the most innocent and pious player. That is, lower your level of vice to zero and get rid of all sin cards. The player who first reaches the set goal is declared the winner!
