Not a game for blockheads!

The aim of Take 6! (a.k.a. 6 nimmt!) is not to get any cards. Every card you have to pick up will cost you a minus point for each blockhead depicted on it. The winner is the player with the least number of blockheads.

Every turn, players simultaneously reveal a card (numbered 1 to 104) which will be placed in one of the table’s four rows. If your card happens to be the 6th in a row, you’ll be forced to pick up all the cards in that row!
