X-Code*

Players work simultaneously to collaboratively crack an encrypted code against the clock. The game board consists of a number grid where the goal is to place three matching cards on each space, including # and *. Players must trade cards with their neighbors, which is essential for success, and use jokers as substitutes for missing cards. Once a player has three matching cards, they can place them to decode or gain extra time, and by discarding time cards, they can flip the hourglass for additional seconds. If the code is successfully cracked, players advance to the next level together.
