Sequence is a board game distributed by Parker. It involves an average-sized playing board, on which are depicted two packs' worth of cards (minus the Jacks), two full standard decks, and 48 chips (similar to Poker Chips) in each of red, blue and green.
Players are dealt a certain number of cards (3-7 depending on the number of players), and then take turns to play these cards, placing a chip of their colour on the corresponding card image on the board. The object of the game is to form a row of 5 chips (be it horizontally, vertically or diagonally) before the other players. For 3 players, 2 of these sequences must be formed.
The four corners of the grid do not depict cards; instead, they are wilds, i.e. any sequence of 4 chips including a wild sqaure wins.
The Jacks fulfil a special role. If a player plays a two-eyed Jack, he or she may place a chip anywhere on the board (except of couse on the wilds). If a one-eyed Jack is played, the player may remove an opposing player's token from anywhere.
