In Loading, all the players try simultaneously to collect as many progression points as possible. Who will be the fastest...or the wisest?

All players but one start with a deck of cards in hand; the final player waits, hand outstretched, for another player to hand them a deck. As soon as you have a deck, examine it as quickly or as thoroughly as you wish for a progression card to play on your stack. You must play cards in ascending order, but you need not play them sequentially. Once you've played a card, get rid of the deck by placing it in the hand of whoever waits.

Once you've gathered enough progression points — or at least once you think you're in a good position — you can discard the deck instead of giving it to someone else, then take a bonus STOP card. There aren't enough STOP cards for all players, so don't delay too long.

Loading includes a two-player mode, as well as an expert mode for skilled players.

•••

Dans Loading, tous les joueurs essayent, en même temps, de collecter un maximum de points de progression. Qui sera le plus rapide... ou le plus malin ?

Un jeu de Draft en temps réel, sans aucun tours! Tous les joueurs, sauf un, commencent avec un Deck de cartes. Le dernier attend, la main tendue, qu'un autre joueur lui donne un Deck.

Dès que vous avez la main sur un Deck, fouillez (rapidement) dans le Deck pour trouver une carte de progression à jouer sur votre Pile. Les cartes doivent être jouées dans l'ordre croissant, mais pas nécessairement avec la carte juste au dessus (on peut jouer un 19 ou un 47 sur un 18, mais pas un 14). Une fois que vous avez joué une carte, débarrassez-vous (rapidement) du Deck en le donnant au joueur qui en attend un.

Une fois que vous avez accumulé suffisamment de points de progression (ou du moins lorsque vous le pensez...), vous pouvez vous débarrasser du Deck au lieu de le donner et prendre une carte Stop de bonus de fin.

Soyez rapide, il n'y aura pas de cartes Stop pour tout le monde...

Pour les plus aguerris d'entre vous, vous trouverez également une variante pour joueurs confirmés et une variante pour 2 joueurs.
