Nine Tiles Panic^*

Nine Tiles Panic is a frantic tile-laying game from Oink Games in which everyone simultaneously builds a town from nine double-sided tiles – a town where aliens chase hot dogs and agents chase aliens. For 2 to 5 players aged 7 and up, about 20 minutes.

How it plays

Three scoring cards define what counts this round: the longest road, the most dogs visible, the most aliens on a single road. Everyone puzzles their nine tiles into a 3×3 grid so the roads connect and as many goals as possible are met. Whoever finishes first flips the sand timer – the others have 90 seconds left. Ties go to the faster player.

Who is it for?

Families and fans of Ubongo who want a funny real-time puzzle in Oink's typically compact box. The game is language-independent; the tiles speak for themselves.
