Game Description

In Qwirkle, players take turns placing tiles on the board, forming rows or columns of tiles that share the same shape or color. Points are scored by making clever combinations and extending existing rows and columns. The game offers strategic challenges as players must decide when to play their tiles and how to maximize their points while preventing their opponents from scoring too much.

While the rules are simple, the game requires strategic thinking to find the best spots for your tiles and block your opponents. With 108 tiles in six different shapes and colors, Qwirkle provides endless variation and replayability.

Gameplay

In Qwirkle, players score points by placing tiles of the same shape or color in rows and columns. The game plays as follows:

  • Each player starts with six randomly drawn tiles. On their turn, players place one or more tiles to form new rows or columns or extend existing ones.
  • Rows and columns must consist of tiles that share either the same shape or color, without any duplicates. A perfect combination of six tiles in a row or column is called a “Qwirkle” and earns extra points.
  • Players score points for each tile placed, as well as for extending existing rows and columns.
  • The game ends when all tiles are played and one player places their final tile. The player with the most points wins.
