The game sounds easy: You form and elongate rows of the same colour or the same shape to score points! You draw 6 pieces. The player with most correlations in these 6 pieces lays out a row. Then in turn each player can place one or more pieces to form new rows or to extend existing rows or exchange 1-6 pieces for new ones. In rows of the same colour each shape can only be present once, and in rows of the same shape each colour only once. Newly placed pieces must have contact to other pieces already placed, but not necessarily to each other. You score points for each piece in each row that you form or extend.
