Played Claude's SEVEN. Played on an 11 x 11 board (which
Arthur happened to have around). Each player had chips
of a distinctive color. Players in turn play one in any
space they wish. Two or more pcs. in a Pcs.
adjoining either diagonally or orthogonally are counted
together - in groups. In any group a player's own pcs.
count 2 pts. each and opponent's pcs. count 1 pt. each.
Object is to place a piece that causes the group it
becomes a part of (isolated pcs. may be joined) to add to
exactly 7 pts. Win when you do this. If your count
becomes 7 pts. from another player's play, it is not a win.
