Object of Game
The main objective of JackBlack is to score points by arranging cards into stacks that
add up to 21 points.
Kings, Queens, Jacks are worth 10 points. An Ace can be used as a 1 or 11. Cards 2 thru
10 are equal to the value on the face of the card.
Scoring
To score you must put 2 or more cards that add up to 21 into a stack on the Play Field. In
the example above, there are 3 stacks where 21 can be made by any card worth 10 points
(K,Q,J,10). If played on the 3rd or 7th stack from the left you would score only the points
left on the Move Timer. But, if played on the 6th column, you would also receive 100 bonus
points.
Bonus Points
Bonus points are added to your Score anytime you make a Blackjack while the Bonus Indicator
is over that column.
The Bonus Indicator randomly moves from one column to another. The number of Bonus points
possible varies from 100 to 3000. If you hear the doorbell sound it indicates that the 3000
point bonus is available.
Penalties
Anytime you add a card to a stack that causes the total to go over 21, the stack is cleared
and 50 points is deducted from your score.
