Connect 4: Card Game (2016)

About this game

The Connect 4 card game brings added dimensions to the classic 4-in-a-row contest. Wild colours give more choice, and power up actions and secret missions ramp up the challenge for your colourful connections! On your turn draw a Connect 4 tile and place it next to a tile already in play. Making the patterns shown on your secret mission cards completes them. The first player to complete 4 missions wins. Some cards conation power ups that may allow players to take a second action on their turn and alter the tiles already in play. Download the shuffle card app to add an extra element to the game. —description from the publisher

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
