How to use

Place all tiles face down and mix them, then each player takes a rack and draws the starting number of tiles according to the instructions. Players take turns placing tiles from their rack onto the table to form valid runs (consecutive numbers of the same color) or sets (same number in different colors), or by rearranging table combinations to accommodate their tiles. If a player cannot or chooses not to play, they draw a tile and the turn passes. The round ends when a player places all their tiles; subsequent rounds can be played using the same components.

Usage recommendations

For smoother play, sort tiles by color and number before first use to verify completeness; store tiles in a box or pouch to protect them. Adjust playing time by agreeing on a target number of rounds or a time limit per round to suit the group.
