Draw, swap, and switch out colorful three-sided game cards to watch your gem take shape. Uncover all of one color to build a jewel of gemz. Watch out for action cards that speed up or slow down progress. Be first to gather six gemz cards of the same color to win.
Setup involves dealing three gemz cards to each player, face up. If an action card is dealt at this time it is placed back in the deck and dealing continues until each player has three cards.
To start play, everyone lays the three cards they were dealt side by side in a semi-circle. The youngest player goes first by drawing one card from the top of the draw pile. If it's a gemz card they add it to their circle. If it's an action card they follow the instructions. Turn-based play continues to the left and players lay down every gemz card they draw until their circle is full. Players may only have six cards total at a time; once their circle is full, they must choose to discard their newly drawn cards or swap them with an existing piece of their circle.
The game continues until one player has gathered 6 gemz cards of the same color. Luck-of-the-draw and the game-changing SWAP cards make sure that no player can coast to an easy win. The rules are simple enough for younger children, teens, and adults to all enjoy playing together.
