Lexio

A climbing game inspired by traditional Chinese play, using sturdy tiles instead of cards. The tiles feature four suits—sun, moon, stars, and cloud—with the number 2 as the strongest rank. Players lead single tiles or sets, while others must play a higher matching combination or pass. The last player to play leads the next combination, and the round ends when one player has no tiles left. After each of five rounds, players score points based on the tiles remaining in their hands and their finishing order. The player with the most points wins.
