TacTile is an engine building abstract strategy game where you move pawns on a board to trigger bonus actions from your tableau of cards.

Your goal is to cross the modular 4 color board and score both your pawns in your opponents home first.

As you advance across the board you can gain resources and buy colorful action cards. Action cards are permanently added to your tableau and can give one free action per turn, but you must activate them by landing on a matching color tile. Build your action engine and use clever positioning to activate your cards in this combo-tastic game of tile tactics!

4 player mode is a competitive 2v2 team battle with special cooperative abilities including the ability to push your ally's pawn and swap cards with your ally.

The "convert" rule.

- You may exhaust two available actions for a free action
of your choice.

- Available actions: activated unexhausted action cards - basic actions are not available for convert.

- Free action options: MOVE, GAIN, PUSH, SWAP, BUY, RESET

== Overview ==

The game is divided into two phases. In the first phase, you will connect terminals and buildings with track tiles. In the second phase, you control your trolley from terminal to terminal and make the necessary stops in between. The first one to do so wins the game.

== Gameplay ==

In phase 1, players take turns to place 2 tiles on the board, until you decide to move on to phase 2. When placing, each tile must be placed on to an empty space of the board or replace a track with brown background. Tracks '''never''' :

- Lead off the board;

- Lead into a building;

- Have end(s) that cannot be continued.

Once the route is fulfilled, you may select to start phase 2. From now on, you will act with phase 2 rules.

In a deviation from the published rules, in the BGA version, once a player places their train, their tiles become available for folks who are still placing tiles.

==== Phase 2 ====

Roll 3 dice and choose 1 to execute, then you can choose to pass or roll 2 dice and execute 1. Then you can choose to pass or roll 1 dice to execute. Then you must skip your turn.

The dice have the following meaning:

<UL>
<LI>Red Light - Trolley does not move.</LI>
<LI>One or Two Green Lights - Trolley moves ahead one or two spaces.</LI>
<LI>H - Trolley moves to next stop or terminal spot.</LI>
<LI>Tools(2 faces) - Trolley must go back to last station or terminal for repairs. This also ends the player's turn.</LI>
</UL>

Cairo Corridor is a two player game where players alternate playing pentagonal tiles until a "corridor" is established. A corridor is a group of empty pentagons adjacent to each other that connects all 4 sides of the board. You may never place a tile that blocks the last possible "gap" for such a corridor. The game ends when there is only one possible corridor left and no more tiles can be placed adjacent to it. The winner is the player with the most tiles next to the corridor. In case of tie, the last player to play loses the game.

On BGA: In this implementation, yellow pentagons are how illegal moves are denoted. If you think about the rules a little bit, you will come to understand that these illegal pentagons will eventually form the final corridor. Pentagons with blue borders are scoring pentagons because they are next to illegal moves (which are the final corridor).

Playing such that there are no corridors able to be traced is illegal. The game ends when no more pentagons can be played in the corridor's area legally. The winner is the player with the most number of pentagons next to the corridor. In case of tie, the last player to play is the loser.
