Be the first to build a continuous, connected path from one of your 'Start' corners to your opposite corresponding 'Goal' corner using hex tiles on the board. Can be played with 2-3 players and 4 players teams(the team mates switch each round positioning the tile. No table talk is allowed. Making the game muchmore interesting otherwise its played the same

• Place the board between players. Player I owns corners I. Player II owns corners II.Player III owns corners III.
• Each player takes all 22 tiles of their colour and places them in an opaque bag.
• Each player draws 3 tiles to form a starting hand.
• After each turn, draw a replacement so you always have 3 tiles in hand.
• Roll a dice to determine first player. Highest roll chooses what 'Start' corner they wish to use and whether to play first or last.

On your turn, perform all 3 steps in order:

• First placement: Must be on one of your own starting corner hexes.
• Adjacency: All subsequent tiles must be placed on an empty hex adjacent to at least one existing tile.
• Connection: At least one line on your tile must connect to a line on an adjacent tile already on the board. No orphans allowed.
• Rotation: You may rotate to any of 6 orientations when placing a tile. No post-placement rotation after your finger has left the tile.
• One per hex: No stacking or replacing tiles. Once occupied, a hex stays occupied.

Dot hexes multiply the base score of 10 points (tournament play). Multipliers from multiple dot hexes stack additively.

Final Points Accumulation Example: Winning Path through 2-dot + (2)3-dot hexes = 10 × (2 + 3 + 3) + 30(winning bonus) = 110 points

6 Hexsided Main Board — 91 hexes, I/II/III corners

• Board orientation:Align the board so that the starting positions of I and III are facing each player(Player A choose one of the sides with I and III on it and Player B the opposite side I and III. *Note the II postions of ech corner are considered regular hexes in the Contested Zone).
• Player Astarts from either normal game 'Start' positionscorners III and I
• Player Bstarts from either normal game 'Start' positionscorners III and I
• Each player takes 3 displacement tokens.
• Designate acapture pilearea for each player.

The defining mechanic of Battle Mode. Governs which tiles your path may use:

Transit is checked per-tile, not per-line. Even if the line connects perfectly, you cannot use an opponent-placed tile in their territory.

First player to complete a valid, transit-compliant path from their starting side to the opponent's side wins immediately.

Only Block and Star-6 tiles can displace adjacent opponent tiles. Max 3 displacements per player per game.

• Placing a Block or Star from your hand
• Placement hex is adjacent to at least one opponent tile
• You have at least one displacement token remaining
• Target is not on a starting corner hex
• Displacement would not orphan any tiles on the board

1. Announce intent to displace
2. Select one adjacent opponent tile as target
3. Remove target tile → place in your capture pile
4. Place your Block or Star on the now-empty hex
5. Discard one displacement token
6. Check for a winning path

Captured tiles go face-up in your capture pile (visible to both players). Capture points apply to stalemate resolution and tournament tiebreakers.

If all hexes fill with no path winner, calculate Stalemate Score:

Highest Stalemate Score wins. If tied, the game is a draw.

If a placement completes paths for both players, the active player wins. However, if their path is transit-invalid, it does not count — and the opponent wins instead.

• 3 Corner Positions: I (top), II (bottom-left), III (bottom-right)
• Centre Cluster: 3 adjacent hexes at the geometric centre
• Triangular shape creates 3 natural "lanes" toward the centre
• Asymmetric distances balanced through reverse turn order

1. Each player rolls a die. Highest roller chooses their 'Start' corner first, then next highest, then lowest takes the remaining position.
2. Assign turn order: III goes 1st, II goes 2nd, I goes 3rd (reverse balance).
3. Each player takes 18 tiles (see distribution below) in their opaque bag.
4. Draw 3 tiles for starting hand. Maintain 3 tiles throughout.

Tri-Board: 14 hexes/side, 3 corners (I, II, III), 3 centre hexes

• Block tiles may be placed on any empty hex adjacent to at least one existing tile — not just your own path.
• Blocks do not need to be adjacent to your own tiles.
• Every block helps one opponent while hurting another — choose wisely!

If two players connect to the same centre hex simultaneously:

1. Compare total tile point value of all tiles in each path. Higher wins.
2. If tied, compare number of dot hexes touched along each path.
3. If still tied, the player who went earlier in turn order wins.

Note: Two players can each connect to different centre hexes simultaneously. In casual play, this is a shared victory.

Dot hexes award flat bonus points (not multipliers). Base starting points = 10 pts.

Example: Path through 2-dot + 4-dot hexes = 10 + 2 + 4 = 16 points(+ Tile points)

If all hexes fill with no winner:

1. Closest to Centre: Count tiles in longest connected path toward any centre hex. Fewest remaining hexes wins.
2. Highest Tile Point Sum: Sum point values of all tiles on longest path. Higher wins.
3. Most Dot Hexes Touched: Count dot hexes on longest path. More wins.
4. True Draw: If all tied, the game is a three-way draw.

• Players use Corners I and III as starting positions.
• Corner II becomes a "dead zone" — no starting tile, not a transit point.
• Goal: First to reach any centre hex.
• Turn order: Corner III goes first , then alternate.
• Each player uses a full 22-tile standard set.
• Standard Race Mode blocking rules apply.
• Scoring uses Tri-Board flat dot bonuses.
