How to Play:

Up and Atom! Fasten your safety goggles for this high-energy card game of quick counting and fast figuring. Race against your opponents to count the total number of spheres hidden among a random group of colorful 3-D shapes. Once you figure out the total, be the first to lay down the correct combination of number cards showing the exact amount. The player with the most Quarx cards at the end of the game wins.

About the Game:

We love the challenge of a good fast playing game. What makes Quarx even more enthralling is the fact that it's not just a game about speed but also about accuracy. In order to win at Quarx, you must be precise on two different levels; visually as well as arithmetically. First, it takes a couple of keen eyes in order to pick out the spheres from the confusion of shapes on the Quarx cards. Then, you need to do some quick mental math and figure out how to represent the exact total using only a static group of numbers (1,2,4,8,16). Quick counting, fast figuring - all the elements for fun!
