Game Rules

Objective

On your turn, place tiles at different positions on the board. To win, get rid of all of your tiles before the other players do.

Game Modes

Choose between single round and multiple round modes, and select the number of players for each game. Single round games are quick and intense, while multiple round games allow for more strategic play.

Starting the Game

At the start of a basic game, the first player tosses one of their tiles into the air. Where it lands determines their starting placement. Play continues clockwise.

Game Start

Tile Placement

Each player places a tile adjacent to any other tile on the board.

Tile Placement

Forming a Hexagon Gem

If a player places a tile in a way that forms a hexagon gem of a single color, that player can play another tile. Otherwise, it’s the next player’s turn.

Winning the Game

The first player to get rid of all their tiles wins the game.

Advanced Rules: To Trade

Each player has the option to trade every turn. If the other players reject the trade, the player can place a tile or offer a new trade with a different player.

A turn ends when the player places a tile that does not form a gem or when the player completes a trade.
