About the game
In Faux Raccords, players try to cooperate editing a movie without being able to communicate. Several modes of play are available, in which you will edit a Feature Film, Two Short Films, a Series, a Multi-Arcs Movie or found your own Production Company. On your turn, you will play a card from your hand in one of three different ways: placing a card face down in the Film placing a card face up in the Cut in order to use its power discarding a card in order to peek at a face down card in the Film. Then you draw a new card and add it to your hand. The game ends either when a player has no card to play on their turn, or when a player decides the movie is ready. The winning condition depends on the mode. For example, for the Feature Film, players need to obtain a row of 16 cards in ascending order.
