For those familiar with the original manual.

The first card played is always legal. Afterwards, a card is legal if it satisfies one of the following conditions regarding the played card and the previous card:

  • Same color family and different glyph group parities.
  • Different color families, same glyph group and the difference between the counts is one.
  • Different glyph groups, same counts and adjacent numbered color families.

Ejecting a Player:

Each number in the table below represents an index into the serial number, which is considered to consist of base-36 characters. Take the color of the illegal card along the side of the table and extend into the table of numbers N cells, where N is the count of the card. Take the sum of the acquired base-36 digits (in base-10) as the key number.
