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 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.
