This game is just another edition of the game Phase 10.

The game includes: 96 number cards (in four colors - red, yellow, green and violet; in numbers from 1 to 12; two of each possible variant) 14 wild-cards (values 1-6 and 7-12, different color combinations) 21 action cards: 4 Take two cards 4 All mine cards 6 Skip a turn cards 4 Give me five cards 3 empty cards 6 overview cards 6 phase indicators

Game flow: This game is played in rounds. In each round every player tries to collect a precise set of cards, called a phase, by drawing cards from the deck and discarding unneeded ones. When a player collects the phase, he lies it down on the table. After that he tries to discard all of his remaining cards by adding them to any of the phases that are already on the table. When the first player discards all of his cards, the round ends. The players who have lied down their phases get to the next phase. And those, who didn't manage to complete the Phase remain in it and in the next round try to collect and lie down the same phase. The game ends with the round in which some player completes the 10th phase.

The phases consists of sets (two or more cards with the same number showing on their face), runs (three or more cards numbered in order), cards of the same color and runs of cards of the same color. The phases are:

  1. 4 pairs (sets of two cards)
  2. 6 cards of the same color
  3. 1 set of four cards and 1 run of four cards
  4. 1 run of eight cards
  5. 7 cards of the same color
  6. 1 run of nine cards
  7. 2 sets of four cards
  8. 1 run of for cards of the same color and 1 set of three cards
  9. 1 set of five cards and 1 set of three cards
  10. 1 set of four cards and 1 run of three cards of the same color

Main differences from Phase 10: Different more challenging phases. Different sort of wild cards. More action cards. Different calculation of points.

Description on the box: The long awaited game is finally here! Phase 10 with new, more demanding phases. Moreover, with over twenty action cards, which make the game even more diverse and exciting. Who will be the fastest to collect the various combinations of the same cards, or the sequence of cards? Who will be the first to master the 10 Phases? Who will be the Phase 10 Master?
