Abstract
A multi-player game includes collecting items within a specified time limit. Seek-able game pieces are selected from a common source available to all players and according to a list provided to each player, for each round. The player who collects the most seek-able game pieces within the time limit for the round is given the opportunity to collect additional “collect to win” game pieces from a set of mystery game pieces. A player who collects all of the essential “collect to win” game pieces is the winner of the game.
