The Game of 49
Players begin with $49 and bid to claim spaces on a 7-by-7 board. Number cards are auctioned one at a time, and the highest bidder places a chip on the matching space. Wild/Payoff cards allow flexible placement and award cash for chips already on the board. The first player to form four chips in a row, in any direction, wins.
