Players begin the game with six blocks. Thestart player places blocks of a single matching attribute (colour or shape butnot both) on the table. Thereafter, a player adds blocks adjacent to at leastone previously played block. The blocks must all be played in a line andmatch, without duplicates, either the colour or shape of the previous block. Players score one point for each block played plus all blocks adjacent. It ispossible for a block to score in more than one direction. If a playercompletes a line containing all six shapes or colours, an additional sixpoints are scored. The player then refills his hand to six blocks. The gameends when the draw bag is depleted and one player plays all of his remainingblocks, earning a six point bonus. The player with the high score wins.
