Blockers!

 

Three steps to win – plan, block und win! For this you place a tile in your turn and try to position your own tiles in the least possible number of groups on the board. A group consists of tiles that touch each other orthogonally along the edges. You only know five of your tiles, the others are face-down. A letter and a number can only be placed into the respective columns or rows, a symbol must be placed on the same symbol on the board itself. If you replace a tile of another player you take it. In doing so you cannot split groups bigger than 2 tiles. You cannot pass a turn. When only 4 tiles are left on your rack you score 1 point for each group on the board and one point for each tile in the biggest color group you did take. In case of a tie you only score the points once. The player with the fewest points wins.
