Rules

  • The game is played by 2 players.
  • The board is divided in squares where the players put tiles.
  • You put a tile by simply clicking on the square
  • For your first move, you can put the tile on any square
  • But for next moves, you can only go to a square that is 1,2 or 3 places to the left, right, up or down
  • You can only place a tile on a square that is not occupied
  • The tile you place is colored red or green
  • On each square 1 tile can be placed
  • Players taking turns to place 1 tile
  • In a tournament a clock is running when it is your turn. If you take too much time, the clock reaches zero and you lose
  • You win when your opponent can no longer make a move.
