A clever mix between tic-tac-toe and rock-paper-scissors!
Players take turns in a clockwise direction. In turn, they place either a face-up tile or a face-down tile. If they can't do either, they show their tiles and pass (draw 2 tiles).
Each face-up tile must be placed next to a tile already placed as long as it remains in a 4x4 or 5x5 grid. If you place a new Face tile, you draw 2 tiles, these can be covered by Back tiles.
If you place a Back tile, it must "beat" a face-up tile while respecting Rock-Paper-Scissors. You don't draw and these tiles are "blocked", because you can't cover them. You have 2 different possibilities to win: by lining up 3 Face tiles of your color or by lining up 3 Back tiles of your color.
Don't underestimate your opponents and pay attention to the game. Remember to cover all your faces because victory comes in 2 different ways! Linx also has a team game mode, in which two teams of 2 players compete against each other.
