Overview

Just4Fun Colours is a variant of Just4Fun that replaces numbered fields with colored fields. Instead of playing numbered cards that sum to a field number, players play cards matching the color of the field they want to place on. The core objective remains the same: achieve majority control on four adjacent fields in a row.

Components

Setup

  1. Each player takes 20 stones of their chosen color.
  2. Shuffle the card deck and deal 4 cards to each player.
  3. Place remaining cards as the draw pile.

Turn Structure

On your turn:

  1. Play cards: Play 1 to 4 cards from your hand. The sum of the card values determines which numbered field on the board receives your stone.
  2. Place a stone: Place one stone on the calculated field.
  3. Draw cards: Draw cards equal to the number played.
