Ludus

Friends of "quick and easy, but fun" card games may rejoice, as this is certainly a winner in this respect. It is not the deepest of games, but can be a satisfying filler or closer for an evening of games. Draw a card to play to a row, or take a row -- it's that easy! You score points for collecting cards of the same color.

The game is very easy, but not dumb, and appeals to both gamers and non-gamers.

Updated for Two Players

Official rules for two players were published in the Abacus Spiele 2006 release. The updated rules refer to green row cards for the two-player variant, but those cards are merely cosmetic reminders; the game can be played by two players with older editions, too.
