Red tokens should only be used when there is a third player, which is why there are fewer. Meanwhile, the playing pieces are color-coded tokens: 50 blue, 50 green, and 35 red.

The sequence deck contains 104 cards, including eight Jacks: four with two eyes and four with one eye (more on that later). I personally think Sequence is more fun with a single opponent or two, but I’ve found that team play is a good way to incorporate younger players. Read on to see if Sequence is still a royal flush. I was thrilled to rediscover this old favorite with a new crop of kids.

(Having three more babies might have something to do with that.) Now that my younger ones are all old enough for cards and other family games, I’m testing out board games to bring into our game night rotation. Unfortunately, after lots of love, our board ripped, cards and pieces were lost, and we forgot all about it. So, when I came across the Jax Sequence game (essentially a board game melded with cards) several years back, I was more than excited to give it a try.īack then, my two older kids and I were big fans and played the game regularly. It’s fair to say that cards are in my blood, and as long as a deck of cards is involved, I’m in. My childhood was defined, more than anything else, by playing cards, often into the wee hours of the night at a table that always had room for one more, with my Grandma Ethel at the helm.
