Mindware Qwirkle

Mix, match, score and win! A simple game of quick thinking and tactical manoeuvres. Match colours and shapes in a row or column to score points!

If you love tile laying games, you’ll love Qwirkle. It’s like Scrabble, but with shapes and colours. Quick to learn and quick to play, Qwirkle is a must-have for your next family game night.

What’s in the box?

• 108 tiles
• A drawbag

How to play:

On your turn, you complete three actions:

1. Place one or more tiles.
You can play multiple tiles on your turn as long as all tiles played are the same colour or the same shape and are placed in the same line.

2. Count up your score!
One point is scored for each tile in a line that you create or add to. A single tile can score two points if it is part of two lines. Whenever you complete a line of all 6 colours or shapes, this is a Qwirkle! A Qwirkle scores 12 points, six for the tiles in the lines and six bonus points! You’ll be aiming for as many Qwirkles as possible to score big.

3. Draw tiles from the bag back to 6 tiles.

When there are no more tiles to draw, play continues as before, and the first player to run out of tiles scores six bonus points and ends the game.

Highest score wins!

Bonus!

Qwirkle reinforces problem-solving and strategic thinking.
