Fairy Lights

Try your luck with Fairy Lights to collect as many points as possible! To play, shuffle the deck and place it face down. The cards in the deck represent 1 or 2 bulbs in one of the five colours, and each card is worth 0-2 points. At the beginning of your turn, look at how many cards are in the "shop", the central area of the game: If the shop contains 5 cards, you can only take cards on your turn. If the shop has 1-4 cards, you can draw from the deck. If the shop has 0 cards, you must draw. When you draw, place the revealed card at the end of the row in the shop. If it is the same colour as the last card in the shop, your turn ends immediately. Otherwise, if there are not five cards in the shop, you can choose to draw again, or you can end your turn and take cards. If there are now five cards in the shop, you must take cards.

When taking cards, if 1-4 cards are in the shop, take all the cards of one colour from the shop and add them to your collection; if five cards are in the shop, take all the cards of two colours from the shop instead. If the number of bulbs of one colour in your collection is now a multiple of three (3, 6, 9, 12), mark these cards, placing them face down in a corner of your playing area. If you have 1 or 2 bulbs of a colour, leave these cards where they are. If you have four or more bulbs of one colour and have not marked them, discard all the bulbs of that colour. The next player then takes their turn. When the last card of the deck is revealed, the active player ends his turn and the game ends. Add up the points on your marked cards, then subtract the points on all the cards remaining in your playing area. Whoever has the most points wins!
