Player Sequence
During a Wednesday evening, when our professor at San
Jose State University decided to let us play board games. I received this game
from my girlfriend, because I thought it would be very fun game for other students
in the class to try out. I thought this was a simple game, since the goal in
mind is to create a sequence (5 chips going vertical or diagonal).
We began to play the game after explaining the rules
of the game and how to become the winner. In the game of three players (Tuan,
Kashan, Denny), each person is dealt out six cards each to begin the starting
rounds. As the game progressed, I have created several patterns on the board
where I am able to complete a sequence. Unfortunately, Kashan was holding onto
a two-eyed jack (Wild Card) and has used it to block me from completing my
sequence.
I realized that there are more chances of winning of
this game, due to the multiples patterns I have created throughout the game. I
made a remark to the other players that if you have the ability to prevent a
player from completing their sequence, then you should attempt to.
Eventually, the game was finally coming to an end with
only one winner allowed. Denny and I had a possible sequence to be completed.
It is Kashan’s turn and he thought that Denny was bluffing, so he didn’t use his
two-eyed jack to attempt to stop him. Instead he used his one-eyed jack to
remove one of my chips. At this point I was complaining to Kashan that he had
ruined my chance of winning. The next turn was when the game has ended, with
Denny placing a two-eyed jack to complete his double-ended sequence.
Although, there was a chance of continuing the game,
Denny’s hand carried 2 two-eyed jack and 1 one-eyed jack, which would’ve put
him a winning position the next turn of rounds. During this board game lab, I only experienced this one game
and didn’t get to try out others.
