Universe

The fusion of two classics
By merging Tic-Tac-Toe and Rock, Paper, Scissors, LINX offers itself as an accessible and playful game of strategy.
1rst victory condition
Achieve an orthogonal or diagonal alignment of 3 face-up tiles in your color.
2nd victory condition
Achieve an orthogonal or diagonal alignment of 3 face-down tiles in your color.

Gameplay

Players take turns clockwise. On their turn, they either place a face up tile OR place a face down tile. If they cannot do neither, they show their tiles and pass (draw 2 tiles).
Each face up tile must be placed adjacent to an already placed tile as long as it remains within a 4x4 grid or 5x5 grid. If you place a new Front 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 by respecting Rock Scissor Paper. You do not draw and these tiles are “blocked”, because you cannot cover them.
You have 2 different possibilities to win: by aligning 3 Front tiles of your colour or by aligning 3 Back tiles of your colour.

Do not underestimate your opponents and pay attention to the game. Remember to cover all your fronts as victory comes in 2 different ways !

Linx also has a team game mode, in which two teams of 2 players compete.
