At player count:
- 1 player, 12 tiles to beat puzzle.
- 2 players, draft 18 tiles each, split into 2 rows.
- 3 players, 12 each.
- 4 players, 9 each.
- 5 players, 7 each (leave one).
- 6 players, 6 each.
The game plays as:
Players play the tiles on the table.
You must play a tile either as a single, pair, three, or four - or in a chain.
You must play the tiles as they are lined in your row from draft.
In an example play,
If a player plays 3 tiles in the table, e.g. 3 1s. and the next player cannot or does not want to beat these tiles. They may sacrifice a tile on the outer border of their row (either side), face down, giving it as a point to the current controlling player. and then pick any of the tiles on the outer rows of the played 3s.
The game ends when one player has shedded all their tiles.
Winner is whoever collected the most upside down tiles.
