&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Strategy Tips From DeBroglieLouis &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Look at the opening board to see what combination of tiles you may be able to build in the first four moves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. By the end of the game, it is helpful to have one of each tile type and a couple tall columns that are working together to combine points.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Getting a purple and/or a white tile early in the game will help increase your points but they may not be so helpful in the end game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4.Farmers and chests can be a powerful addition to your existing combination of farms or markets. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. Keep an eye on your opponents. If you can block them without slowing down your own progress, then do it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. Keep an eye on the cards. They may push your score just high enough to get a win in a close game.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
