About Loners — from BoardGameGeek:
"Round up broken heroes, pavement prophets, and alleyway weirdos to climb the rusty rungs of street power in LONERS! Recruit street toughs to build your hand, slam down powerful sets and runs to show your muscle, and call security if things get too hot. Wow never pegged you for a snitch?? Be the first to shed all your cards and win!" LONERS is a thematic climbing game of high times and low-lifes. Play ever-escalating combos from your hand to take down the active crew on the block. You can't rearrange your hand, so you'll need to recruit public Loner cards to juice your combos-but that's risky. Any combo using Loners can be stolen if another player can add a card, claiming ownership. You can also flip the script by playing Security Guards cards to de-escalate the fight, forcing future combos lower. Get rid of your cards to win the round, but no one can go out until all public Loners are claimed. Time your plays right-or get jumped. -description from the publisher
