    More info about the original Recycle:
    You control a team of numbered Collectors, three if you play with four people and four if there are two or three players. They move around a board filled with triangular pieces representing recyclable and organic materials we may find in the city streets disposed by the population.

    Every round has six phases: 1. supply of recycled materials; 2. Buy equipment to Cooperative (reverse order of round); 3. Walk with Collectors; 4. Buy at the public Warehouse; 5. Business among Cooperatives; 6. Recycling.

    Each player begins one round, following the order of Collectors (first the Collector #1 of everybody, then #2, then #3. For example, when Collectors #2 begins a round, they are followed by #3s then #1s, if there are four players).

    There are two ways for the game to end. One is when the trash yard is filled up with organic pieces and points. Other is after each Collector have began one round. Wins the game who manage to get more qualification points.

    Each Collector has his own transportation car, where he may put four pieces. After collecting, one of the team must enter one of the five Cooperative spaces to deliver it. Then, the player may pay the collecting costs of each piece, according to the table of prices for one or more pieces (it gets cheaper for more pieces), and bring it to the Cooperative board, where he will recycle it at the end of the round to get qualification points and money. When a Collector is inside a Cooperative space, the player may also sell any piece his team had collected to any other player he wishes, following the prices described.

    A Cooperative may have up to three different equipments of recycling. There are equipments of less and more capacity. The small may recycle doubles of pieces and the big may recycle sets of two OR sets of three pieces per round.
