Description
A clever mix of tic-tac-toe and rock-paper-scissors!
Players take turns going clockwise. On their turn, they place either a face-up tile or a face-down tile. If they can't do either, they reveal their tiles and pass (draw 2 tiles).
Each face-up tile must be placed next to a previously placed tile as long as it remains in a 4x4 or 5x5 grid. If you place a new tile in front, you draw 2 tiles; these can be covered by tiles in the back.
If you place a tile in the back, it must "beat" a face-up tile in accordance with rock-paper-scissors. You don't draw, and these tiles are "blocked" because you can't cover them. You have two different ways to win: by aligning 3 front tiles of your color or by aligning 3 back tiles of your color.
Don't underestimate your opponents and pay attention to the game. Remember to cover all your fronts because victory comes in two different ways!
Linx also offers a team game mode, in which two teams of two players compete against each other.
