Play
Players share tiles

Play Rock, Paper, Scissors to determine the starting player

Turns then alternate

On a turn,

Move a tile from 1-3 spaces in any of the 6 directions, not over empty spaces or the center of the board. Then following the Stacking Order end the move on top of another tile capturing it.

Both tiles are removed from the board, they will be used at endgame scoring

Groups
Adjacent tiles are considered a group, a single tile with no adjacencies is also considered a group.

If a group is split into 2 groups that are divided by empty spaces, the smaller group is removed from the board.

If a group is split into 2 or 3 equal size groups, remove the group/groups that did not have the captured tile.

These tiles are not used in scoring.

When no more moves can be made the game ends

Scoring
Total your tiles using the numbers on the face of the tiles

Runs of two or more tiles only count as the lowest value in the run, like (23,24,25,26)

Subtract any (-1) tiles you may have from your total

Objective
The player with the lowest score wins!
