Quadro Color

Colors and Squares

Colored squares make up a board, seemingly haphazardly arranged - 7x7 squares show eight times the colors orange, blue, grey, red and purple, and nine times green; in each row two of colors appear twice, and there are never adjacent squares of the same color. 24 square small tiles show four small squares in four of the six colors. Those tiles are shuffled face-down and each player draws three of those tiles, still face down, and sets them down, Now one player gives a starting signal and all players simultaneously turn over their tiles and try to find the correct place on the board for them. For each tile there is an intersection of four squares showing the colors of the small squares on the tile, and you place the tile on this intersection. You can, of course, turn the tile any way you want before placing it. When you have spotted the correct intersection, you put the tile down. OF course, tiles can touch each other, because due to placing tiles on the intersections of four big squares you can use each big square for four small squares situated on four different small tiles, depending on the orientation of the tile.

If you are first to place all your tiles, you win the round. At the start of the game you decide on the number of rounds you want to play; if you win most of those rounds you win the game.

The simplest of rules, very simple components and a lot of fun - no change, no interference from other players! It only depends on your observation and speed - how fast can you spot the necessary arrangement of four squares and how fast can you turn your tile in your mind or in your hand.
