Configurations
Player(s) work together to find an arrangement of digits in a table which satisfies certain criteria. Then they discover which of the image cards can be used to represent the table in diagrammatic form. More a puzzle than a game, and there's not much more to it once you "get it," but it does offer a glimpse into a backwater of Mathematics you might otherwise never have known about.
