In 6 nimmt!, a.k.a. Category 5 and many other names, you want to score
as few points as possible.
To play the game, you shuffle the 104 number cards, lay out four cards
face-up to start the four rows, then deal ten cards to each player. Each
turn, players simultaneously choose and reveal a card from their hand,
then add the cards to the rows, with cards being placed in ascending
order based on their number; specifically, each card is placed in the
row that ends with the highest number that's below the card's number.
When the sixth card is placed in a row, the owner of that card claims
the other five cards and the sixth card becomes the first card in a new
row.
In addition to a number from 1 to 104, each card has a point value.
After finishing ten rounds, players tally their score and see whether
the game ends. (Category 5 ends when a player has a score greater than
74, for example, while 6 nimmt! ends when someone tops 66.) When this
happens, the player with the fewest points wins!
6 nimmt! works with 2-10 players, and the dynamics of gameplay change
the more players that you have. One variant for the game has you use 34
cards, 44 cards, 54 cards, etc. (instead of all 104 cards) when you have
three, four, five, etc. number of players. This change allows you to
know which cards are in play, thereby allowing you to track which cards
have been played and (theoretically) make better choices as to which
card to play when.
