Sequence can be played with 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, or 12 players. If more than three people are playing, they should divide evenly into two or three teams (which is why it cannot be played with 5, 7, or 11 players). With two teams, kivalo players alternate their physical positions with opponents around the playing surface. With three teams, players of a team must be positioned at every third player around the playing surface.
