Card game inspired on the similar game within Bethesda's game "FallOut: New Vegas". Main goal is to form 3 rows ('Caravans') of cards with a value between 21 and 26 (either on your side, the opponent's side or both) The player with the highest value in 2 or more Caravans, will win the game. A more detailed tutorial video is available from the Help screen. Cards can be added either values upward or downward on a row (depending on the second card being added). Side-cards (J, Q, K, Joker) have special powers, you can use those to help yourself... or just to obscure your opponent's caravans. These powers are explained within the Help screens and within the tutorial video. You're able to put your own customized deck together, to create your own tactics to play the game. * Note: this app has been inspired by the game within 'FallOut: New Vegas' and created out of love for this game. Bethesda has not been involved into this development and therefore cannot be held responsible for either bugs or deviating game rules within this app.
