6 nimmt!
At the table · 30–45 min
Finish with the fewest bullheads.
Choose a card in secret; cards resolve in ascending order into the closest lower row.
The sixth card takes a row. When anyone reaches 66, the lowest total wins.
Ten hidden choices, four rows
6 nimmt! plays with 104 cards numbered 1–104. Each player starts a round with ten cards. Four face-up cards start the rows. Everyone chooses one card secretly; after all choices are in, reveal them and resolve them from lowest to highest. Repeat for ten choices.
Where a card goes
A card goes after a lower number, in the row whose last card is closest below it. You cannot choose another row. If it becomes the sixth card, take the five cards already there and leave your played card as the first card of that row.
If your card is lower than the end of every row, choose any one row to take. Your played card starts that row.
Bullheads and the finish
Every taken card scores its printed bullheads: most cards have 1; numbers ending in 5 have 2; multiples of 10 have 3; doubles such as 11 and 22 have 5; the 55 has 7. After ten choices, deal a new round. Once anyone reaches 66 or more, the player with the fewest total bullheads wins. Equal lowest scores share the win.
Playing online
Card choices stay hidden until everyone has locked one. When a low card needs a row, that player chooses which row to collect. A bot takes over a missed turn in a friends table; solo opponents play automatically.
