Dash is a short card game where you draft and then play through your deck, battling for the best score. The structure of the game allows you to filter through what you've gotten, and you won't be playing most of what you draft. All but the lowest-valued cards have a cost, requiring you to spend cards you've already played. You must either "trash" a certain value's worth of cards, sending them out of the game, or "stash" them, saving those points for later. Balancing the risky but high-valued trashing cards and the safer but less rewarding stashing cards, keeping in mind the values and types in your deck's makeup, is central to the game. The game can be played cutthroat with 2 to 4 players, solo against a "robot" player, or as a partners game of 2 on 2.
