OVERVIEW OF QWIRKLE

Somewhere between Scrabble, dominoes and Jungle Speed, Qwirkle consists of aligning tiles with symbols of identical shape or colour in order to create combinations that yield maximum points.

SETUP

• Take 1 sheet of paper and 1 pencil (to note the score).
• Place all tiles in the bag.
• Each player randomly draws 6 tiles from the bag.
• Players place their respective tiles in front of them so that no other player can see the symbols. These tiles form the player’s hand.
• The remaining tiles form the reserve and remain in the bag.

Determination of the first player

Each player examines his draw and announces the highest number of tiles with a common characteristic: colour or shape (attention: duplicate tiles are not included in this number).

The player with the highest number starts the game. In case of a tie, the oldest player starts.

This player places his tiles (with a common characteristic) on the table and scores his points. He then draws from the reserve to have 6 tiles in front of him again.

Example of a 2 player game setup (the right player starts with two blue shape tiles)

GAMEPLAY먹튀사이트

In clockwise order, each player may perform one of these 2 actions:

• Complete a line by adding one or more tiles, then draw from the reserve to complete your hand with 6 tiles. All tiles played from the player’s hand must share a characteristic, namely colour or shape. The played tiles must always belong to the same line (they may not touch each other).
• Exchange all or part of the tiles in his hand for as many other tiles from the reserve and pass his turn (without playing a tile).
