Blue J’s is a strategy game where the game grows into any shape as the cards are played out. You use your cards to cover other squares on the gameboard. Anything you cover up has to match an attribute on the card being played. By matching both (color and symbol), you force the next player to draw cards based on how many complete squares you match. If you run out of cards you win the round or go for the quick round win and match the Blue J’s.
