How is the game played

DirectionsSequence can be played with two to 12 players, so long as the number of players is divisible by two or three (i.e., not 5, 7 or 11). If there are more than three individual players, they should divide evenly into two or three teams (up to three teams of four players). With two teams, players alternate their physical positions with opponents around the playing surface. With three teams, players of a team must be positioned at every third player around the playing surface.Place the game board on a flat surface (such as the floor or a table) with enough room to allow for the draw deck, a discard pile and marker chips. Remove the jokers, if any, from the deck as they are not used in the game.To decide who goes first, one player then shuffles the card decks into one stack. Each player takes a card from the deck. The player with the lowest card deals. Shuffle once more. Each player or team then chooses a set of poker chips, and all members of each team must use the same color chips (red is only used if there are three teams).The number of cards dealt to each player varies by the number of people playing:Two Players: Seven cards eachThree Players: Six cards eachFour Players: Six cards eachSix Players: Five cards eachEight Players: Four cards eachNine Players: Four cards eachTen Players: Three cards eachTwelve Players: Three cards each.Each card is pictured twice on the game board, and Jacks (while necessary for game strategy) do not appear on the board.The player to the left of the dealer goes first.Choose a card from your hand, and place a chip on one of the corresponding spaces of the game board (Example: you choose Ace of Diamonds from your hand and place a chip on the Ace of Diamonds on the board). Jacks are wild. Two-Eyed Jacks can represent any card and may be used to place a counter on any space on the board. One-Eyed Jacks can remove an opponent’s token from a space. Players may use the Two-Eyed Jacks to complete a row or block an opponent, and One-Eyed Jacks can remove an opponent’s advantage. One-Eyed Jacks cannot be used to remove a marker chip that is already part of a completed sequence; once a sequence is achieved by a player or team, it stands. Once a Jack is played, it ends the turn.The played card then goes face-up into a “Discard” pile, and play passes to the left.A player may place chips on either of the appropriate card spaces as long as it is not already covered by an opponent’s marker chip.If a player possesses a card which does not have an open space on the game board, the card is considered “dead” and may be exchanged for a new card. When it is your turn, place the dead on card on the discard pile, announce you are turning in a dead card, and take a replacement (one card per turn). Then proceed to play your normal turn.StrategyEach corner of the board has a “Free” space that all players can use to their advantage. This space acts as if it has a chip of each color on it at all times - chips are never actually placed on this space.To form rows, poker chips may be placed vertically, horizontally or diagonally. Each complete row of five (or four and a free corner space) is counted as a sequence. Sequences of the same color may intersect, but only at a single position.If the draw deck becomes depleted during play, shuffle the discard pile and begin again.Sequence rules dictate no table talk or coaching between team members and a precise order in which hands must be played (card, chip, replace card). If you forget to replace a card on your turn, you cannot make it up in a later one and must continue playing the game with a reduced number of cards.WinningThe game ends when a player completes the winning amount of sequences: two sequences for two players or teams; one sequence for three players or teams.[3]Two Sequences: When two (2) sequences are required to win they can be in one straight row of ten chips. However this is accepted as a win only when one sequence does not interrupt the other. Once a sequence is made in the middle of the line it disrupts the ends. For example 5+4 is acceptable but a 2+5+3 is unacceptable.

One of the best indoor board games for all ages

I bought this 3 years back for my kids. This is one of the best indoor game I have ever played. This can be played by 7 year old as well as 70 year old. Playing this game requires only a bit of luck and a lots of intelligence, strategy and thinking. The quality of board, chips and cards is excellent. These days the game is available for around 500 rs so really value for money. We have played it so many times in the last 3 years especially during vacations but never got bored. I recommend this strongly for all ages. Please hit like if you find my review helpful!

Original and authentic !

Too good and very authentic. This is a original sequence board from jax imported from US. The only way to find if you have received a original sequence board is check the trademark jax printed in every cards with the established year on it. Other duplicates do not have the jax trademark or the year printed on every cards, since I received duplicate game twice before. I have compared this with the one brought directly from US as well.

The Jax Sequence Game is an absolute classic! It’s easy to learn but has enough strategy to keep things exciting. The folding board, cards, and chips are good quality and store nicely in the box. We’ve played it with family and friends, and it’s always a hit — perfect for game nights, parties, or casual evenings. Highly recommend for all ages!

Séquence est un super jeu de stratégie, où notre concentration peut nous jouer des tours si on oublie de piocher. Je préfère cette version anglaise car le visuel des cartes sur le plateau et dans nos mains sont familières par rapport aux autres jeux du mêmes nom.
