This simple, highly enjoyable game can be played quite easily by young children. Each player starts with 4 wooden tiles, randomly pulled from the cloth bag. A starter tile is placed on the table and players take turns adding to it. The winner will be the first player to use all their tiles. The tiles have 3 different jigsaw profiles - round, pointed, and angular, so that some tiles fit together, while others don't. For example, a tile with a protruding peak fits into one with a triangular notch. If you can fit a tile to the existing chain on your turn, do so, and play passes to the next player. If you can't, you must draw one from the bag, and in doing so try to find one, by touch alone, that fits. Because everyone's tiles are visible at all times, you can make strategic choices to hinder other players or further your own next move. The game play here goes deeper than at first you might think, making it a game adults and older children will enjoy as much as the young ones! For 1 to 4 players.
