About The Very Clever Pipe Game

The game consists of a set of cards. The cards have white and black pipes in various six-outlet configurations, and players take turns placing them onto the table. When a player constructs a completely closed-off section of pipe in their color, he takes all the cards from that section. After all cards have been played, the player with the most scored cards wins.
