## What is The Average game?

The Average game is a game of numbers somewhat inspired by one of the games from the Netflix-series "Alice in borderland".

The goal of the game is to pick a number as close to the average of the sum of all the players picked numbers as possible. If you get closest to the average you will earn a point. If you are not the closest you will lose a life. You get 100 lives at the start of the game. When all 100 lives are gone the score will be reset and you have to start over.

Keep earning points by winning and get extra lives by keeping a winning streak. Your highest score will automatically be submitted to the leaderboards if you chose to play the online mode. Seems easy enough, yes?

However, you cannot pick any number you want every turn. Each turn the rules for which numbers will be valid changes.

Game features:
- Somewhat addictive gameplay.
- Rules that change each turn.
- Game Center support.
