Prefer to learn by playing? Clear one blind with step-by-step coaching, then keep the run.
Score points by arranging tiles into valid groups of 3 or more tiles. There are exactly two kinds:
You build up your play first, then cash it all in at once.
Each group adds this much Mult when you place it:
| Group | Mult added |
|---|---|
| Set of 3 | +2.0 |
| Set of 4 | +3.0 |
| Run of 3 | +1.5 |
| Run of 4 | +2.0 |
| Run of 5+ | +2.5 (+0.5 per extra tile) |
Your turn score is:
⌊ Chips × (1 + Σ group mults) × relics × boss ⌋
Example: place a Set of three 7s (21 chips, +2.0) and a Run 4-5-6 (15 chips, +1.5). Banked = 36 chips, Mult = 1 + 2.0 + 1.5 = 4.5 → Score cashes in 162 (before relics).
⚠️ First play of each blind must total ≥ 30 chips (face value) — you can spread it across several groups (e.g. a 6-pt run + a 15-pt run + a 12-pt set). No wilds on the first play.
Tiles you play stay on the board between turns. You can click board tiles to lift them, then combine them with hand tiles to form new groups.
This is the key to high scores — reuse board tiles to play more groups per turn!
Melds score left→right, top→bottom — and you can change that order! Drag a meld's backing plate (the ⠿ tab), or drag any of its tiles up/down, to move the whole meld. Drag a Set tile sideways to reorder tiles inside it. Order matters for relics like Chain Reaction (every 3rd tile retriggers) and Double Tap (first tile of each group).
Runs keep their number order — a wild's position in a run defines which number it stands for.
⚠️ If you extract tiles from a board group, the remaining tiles must still form a valid group (3+ tiles), or you must merge the stranded tiles into other board groups.
Beat 9 Antes, each with 3 blinds:
| Blind | Target | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 1× base | Easiest |
| Big | 1.5× base | Moderate |
| Boss | 2× base | Has a boss modifier! |
Each ante's base score rises steeply: 300 → 800 → 2,800 → 6,000 → 11,000 → 20,000 → 35,000 → 50,000 → 65,000
Before each run, choose a Deck that modifies your starting stats (plays, draws, relic slots, gold). Sapphire is the beginner-friendly default.
Then pick from starter packs using your draft budget. Tap a pack and press Open. Choose your items, then press Take Items. Unspent budget carries into your run as gold.
