PLAYED FOR YOU

SCHOKOly

SWEET AND NASTY

Chocolate – white chocolate, dark chocolate and milk chocolate – all 48 tiles show pieces of chocolate in three varieties and players try to lay out the biggest bar in their own variety.

The tiles are shuffled and stacked face down; you start with four tiles in hand. The starting player chooses a variety of chocolate, places a tile in the middle and draws a tile. The second player chooses one o the remaining colors / chocolate varieties, adds a tile to the display and draws a tile. The tiles must be places in a way that continues one of the colors and that at least two pieces of chocolate on one or more of the already displayed tiles border the new tile. The pieces must touch each other along the edges, touching across corners is not correct and does not count for the scoring of the biggest connected area. The third color is neutral; areas in this color are assigned to the player who achieves the most connections between the neutral color and his own color in an area.

If you place a red Smarties piece on a tile you can place this tile on tiles already on display; these tile must cover at least two different tiles, must be completely on top of other tiles and can never in turn be covered by other tiles, not even by tiles with Smarties. When the last tile has been placed the bar of chocolate is scored. You win if you could form the biggest area in your chocolate variety, each piece scores 1 point. In a game of four players two teams are playing, in case of three players each player plays his own color.

The game wets your appetite for more – more games and more chocolate, basically abstract, but rather graphic and very, very good.
