Deutscher Lernspielpreis "9 years and up"
Tile-Laying
Abstract
The goal is to have the fewest number of groups of stones on the board by the end of the game. Players take turns placing one of their five stones on a 9x9 grid and then drawing another stone to replace it. Players can capture an opponent's stone by placing a legal stone in its place if it does not split their own stones into more than one group.
