This game is about building the biggest and best(est?) computer. You have to give it everything it needs, a.k.a. a processor, a hard drive, some RAM, and may give it some extras, for instance, installing some programs onto a finished computer.
Special Rules
Winning
Every "Thing" that you can put on a computer has a score (See "Thing - Application", "Thing - Memory" and "Thing - Hard Drive" for the special cases"). At the end of the first reshuffle of the deck, (a.k.a. right before you are about to reshuffle it again) count up the number of points that each computer has and the one with the most points wins!
Thing - Application
Each "Thing - Application" has three numbers seperated by slashes in the top right hand corner. The first number represents how much disk space (in MB) a computer needs to handle the application, the second how much RAM (in MB) it needs, and the third how many points a computer gets for having that application installed.
Thing - OS
An Operating System is a type of Application but it does not count towards the maximum number of Applications that a certain processor can hold. You must install an Operating System before you install any Applications. Some processors may not support certain Operating Systems.
Thing - Memory
Each "Thing - Memory" has two numbers seperated by slashes in the top right hand corner. The first number represents how much memory (in MB) your computer gets with this card, and the second is its score.
Thing - Hard Drive
Each "Thing - Hard Drive" has two numbers seperated by slashes in the top right hand corner. The first number represents how much disk space (in MB) your computer gets with this card, and the second is its score.
