  • Question
    Can my piece be touching corners of an other color's piece (besides my color's corners)?
    Community Answer
    Yes. Your piece can touch any part of other colored blocks, but only the corners of your own color.
  • Question
    What do we do if we're out of blocks?

    Wait until the rest of the players run out of blocks, then tally the score.
  • Question
    Do I set up the board differently for three players?
    Community Answer
    No, you do not.
  • Question
    Can I move my piece in Blokus once I've put it down?
    Community Answer
    No.
  • Question
    What do I do with the extra color if there are only three players?
    Community Answer
    According to the rules, players take turns placing pieces of the leftover color. This is especially fun, because all players essentially have another weapon, but it can quickly be used against them, too.
  • Question
    How do I get points in the first place?
    Community Answer
    You don't really earn points, you just try to lose them. By placing tiles on the board, you lose points, and you want to have as many of your tiles on the board at the end of the game as you can.
  • Question
    How long does a typical game last?
    Community Answer
    It depends on how long you take on each turn and how many people are playing. It usually though, lasts about 20-30 minutes.
