Set-up

Add the 10 black cards to the deck.

How to Play

The players must form a sixth fireworks series, which will be placed on the table next to the other ones. Black cards are played in reverse order to coloured cards, that is, in descending order, from 5 to 1. When the black fireworks series is completed (with the number 1 card), players get a CLUE token as a bonus, just like with the other colours.

Black cards have no colour. It is forbidden to give information about their colour. Players can only give information about their value.

Note: It is also forbidden to say "You have no black cards."

Scoring

Black cards do not score like the other colours. You'll have to subtract 1 point from your final score for each card missing in the black fireworks display. The maximum score is still 25 points. You will be able to add the Black Powder Award to your final score, even if you don't complete the series!

Example: at the end of the game, the black fireworks display is formed by the cards valued 5, 4 and 3. Players will subtract 2 points from their final score. Therefore, their total score will be 16 points with the Black Powder Award.
