How to play
Marram Classic
Each turn, a player must do the following twice:
- place a tile; or
- flip a tile.
Place a tile
When placing a tile, all the features of adjacent tiles must match: grass tufts, sand, orange snakes, blue snakes and worms.
If there are any remaining in their supply, a player may optionally place a welly boot on a feature of the placed tile.
If the tile placement completes a feature, that feature scores for the player with the most welly boots on it. All welly boots from completed features are returned to their respective players.
Flip a tile
A player may only flip a tile if they have at least one remaining shovel in their supply. Flipping a tile expends a shovel from the player's supply.
The player selects a tile with a shovel symbol on it and turns it over in place. If there are any welly boots on the flipped tile itself, they are removed from the game. The tile is then realigned, if necessary, so that its features match with the adjacent tiles. If more than one rotation is possible, the player may choose.
The player may then optionally place a welly boot on a feature on the tile.
Any features completed as a result of the flipping are scored, including those from welly boots just placed. Welly boots from completed features are returned to their owners.
