Bucket Brigade

Players attempt to advance four colored fireman tokens up a ladder-style track by playing colored cards numbered 1 or 2 from their hand. Each round, the color that reaches the highest space scores +3 for each card of that color in players’ hands; the other colors score between +2 and -1 depending on how far they advanced. Players balance using cards to push a token forward against keeping cards of that color for end-of-round scoring. Rounds repeat with the same card distribution and scoring levels, and highest total score after the set number of rounds wins.
