Actions

On your turn you can do one of the following actions:

Shift Stones

Discard a card, then switch any two adjacent tiles. (No diagonals.)

Flip Stones

Discard a card, then flip over a tile.

Score a Card

Reveal a card from your hand that matches a pattern on the tile grid. Place it face-up in front of you. (The card must match exactly, and may not be rotated or flipped.)

End Your Turn

Draw back up to 4 cards.

Skip Your Turn

Skip your turn and draw 2 cards from the deck. You may not skip twice in a row.

End Game Condition

After any player has scored a certain number of cards, the game will end after that round is completed. The number of cards depends on the number of players:

  • 2 Players, 10 Cards
  • 3 Players, 9 Cards
  • 4 Players, 8 Cards
  • 5 Players, 7 Cards

Each player's score is the total of all the points in their scored cards, plus the player with the most 1-point cards gains a bonus 3 points.
