Exercise 3.4: Objectives

Every game has an objectives. While the objective in each game is slightly different, there are some overlaps between games. These are the objectives of ten of my favorite games:

1. Settlers of Catan. The objective in this game is to score 10 victory points before the other players.

1. Color Switch. The objective in color swap is to get as high of a score as possible.

1. Solitaire. Solitaire’s objective is to play all of the cards into the center in numerical order.

1. Chess. In chess, the objective is to take your opponent’s King before they take yours.

1. Checkers. The objective in checkers is to take all of the opponent’s checkers before they take yours.
