Arlenkino - Ages 6+

With 36 colourful tiles, players aim to have the most of their colour remaining at the end of the game. Strategic thinking skills change the game each time it is played.

To start the game, players place the tiles randomly on the board, then remove the black-and-white starter tile. The other tiles have some combination of the four colours in the game: four segments of yellow; three yellow and one blue; two yellow, one blue and one red; etc. On a turn, you choose a tile that contains at least one segment of your colour, then move that tile one or more times, up to the number of segments of your colour on that tile. You can move horizontally or vertically, and you can jump over an adjacent tile to remove it from the game. You must remove a tile on your turn or else you must pass. When all players must pass, the game ends and the player who has the most segments of their colour on the remaining tiles wins.
