Ingenious

Description

Ingenious: Always exciting – up to the last second! New possibilities appear with every new tile that you place. Maximise your score by placing tiles so the symbols on them align with other tiles in the longest lines possible. However, be careful to ensure no colour is neglected – because the colour with the lowest score ultimately decides whether you win or not. Clever tile placement and a little bit of luck could ensure your victory! It’s ingenious … and it’s hugely entertaining, time and time again.

This updated version of the original award-winning Ingenious is an abstract tile-placement game in which the players take turns placing tiles in the shape of two connected hexagons onto a hexagonal grid on the board. The trick, however, is that a player’s score is equal to their worst-scoring colour, not their best, so they need to score for all colours instead of specialising in only one or two.

The game includes 120 domino-style tiles, each consisting of two hexagons connected along one side.
