Codex card game

|
Codex is a card game created in 2010 by Gregg M. Cox and marketed worldwide by C&C International. Codex consists of a number of code cards containing a random series of five numbers and colors, joker cards, lock cards and number cards in either red, yellow, blue, black or green. The object of the game is to be the first to decipher the code through use of the number cards or in combination with the joker cards. Card types A set of Codex cards contains 50 Number cards, 15 Wild cards, 5 Lock cards, and 10 Code cards. Code cards A code card displays a five digit code composed of the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 of various colors (red, green, blue, yellow or black). Each code is unique to each player and it is this code that the player tries to compose before any of the other players in order to win the game. Number cards Number cards display a single number 1,2,3,4 or 5 in either red, green, blue, yellow or black. Number cards are used to compose the required code found on the Code cards. Wild cards Wild cards are those cards which display a single color in either, red, green, blue, yellow or black. Wild cards are used to change a number of the same type required on the Code card, but of a different color into the color of the Wild card. Lock cards Lock cards are those cards displaying a closed lock. Lock cards are used to either lock the next player from their turn, by placing it on the Discard pile, or by canceling a Reverse pile or Hold pile at any stage of its development. Once a Reverse or Hold pile is canceled, the cards are placed aside. Lock cards may not however be used to start a Reverse pile or a Hold pile. In the case of a lock out, if the next player also holds a Lock card, they may play it on the Discard pile and continue with their turn.
