Mint Condition Comics

Players compete to assemble the best comic book collection across a series of rounds. Each round a deck is shuffled to create a market (the Comic Book Shop) and three face-up piles; play continues until the deck and piles are exhausted. On a turn, a player may trade with the market or another player, then attempt to pick one of the piles. Players inspect the last pile and either take it or pass, placing an extra card onto that pile as they move on. Picked cards immediately join a player’s collection and are used to form or expand comic sets. At round end, collections score for set completeness and round-specific bonuses; total points after the final round determine the winner.
