The Numbers Game is a new game concept that resembles the memory game play but with some interesting differences, which makes the game more exciting & flexible. The Numbers Game consists of four sets of 20 cards. Each set has a set of numbers running from 1 to 20. The goal of the game is to collect one set of 20 cards. However, the cards may only be added to your collection in ascending order, if you first pick a number-1 card, or in descending order, if you first pick a number-20 card. The player who first completes a full 1-20 row wins the game.

Paul Baars sharp eye for graphic candor resulted in a collection of thousands of street graphics depicting numbers. For this game, he selected 80 striking numbers in surprising settings from his large collection. ...
