Serpentine (ES)

Description

Players try to form snakes as long as possible. A snake always consists of a head, at least a central part and a glue part. The player who has formed more snakes and has gained more strength.

The cards are laid out and placed in the shape of a fan on the table. A card from "abanico" is drawn and placed upright in the center of the table. In turns, each player draws a card from the "abanico" and tries to match the color with a card from the center of the table. The letter can be given the flight so that it coincides. If the colors of the cards match, a snake starts.

If a player draws a card that cannot be placed next to a card or a snake in the center of the table, this card is placed alone in the center of the table. A letter drawn from the "abanico" can be placed next to a snake to enlarge it. A snake can be extended on both sides. If you have added a head or glue to the snake, you cannot extend the snake to the side where the head or glue is placed. A snake without a head or tail is an incomplete snake. The incomplete snakes remain at the center of the table until they can be completed and complained.

A complete snake consists of a head section, a glue section and at least a central section. A complete snake does not need to have all colors. The player who can complete a snake by placing a head or glue of the corresponding color next to the "open" side of the snake can take the snake from the center of the table and place it directly in front of it.

The head and the glue with the colors of the rainbow are comfortable. You can place yourself next to each central section of a snake.

If there are several incomplete snakes in the center of the table, a player who draws a card of the same color as "abanico" can combine the incomplete snakes. The player takes the combined snake and places it directly in front of him. The player can only combine two incomplete snakes if he uses the card he just drew from the fan.

The game ends when the last card of the fan is drawn. If the player with the last card is able to complete a snake, he can control it and place it directly in front of him. Now the cards that are found in front of each player are counted. The player who has the most cards wins. If the most players have the same number of cards, the player wins with the longest snake.
