Clique Mystique is a tile-laying card game for two players, using the Mystique Deck. The object is to own the most cards at the end of the game. Play starts from a randomly dealt 3x3 array of cards and gradually expands into a 7x7 virtual board. Players form groups of closely related cards (Cliques) or completely unrelated cards (Motley Crews), capturing opposing stacks in the process.
