Socks

Socks is a card game that is simple to start, yet challenging to master. It can be played with other people, or by oneself, competitively or cooperatively. In Socks, each card contains 1-6 socks in fixed positions (six positions, in every sock is in different color). All players compete simultaneously and try to claim "match" of cards in a single pass through the deck. A "match" consists of a set of three cards where all the socks are paired up. Lay out twelve Socks cards, face up. Whoever spots a match first, says "Match!" and lets the other players check. If the three cards have all the socks in them paired up, then the spotter gets a point. If some of the socks are not paired up, then the spotter loses a point. If all the players agree that there isn't a match on the table, lay out three more cards face up. Continue playing until the deck runs out. Whoever has the most points wins! —description from the designer
