This game is simple and quick to play. An ideal type of game for pick-up play between more serious games.

Each player places a token on the central starting tile. The object of the game is to be the last token left on the board by the end of the game.

Each player is dealt a hand of tiles. Each tile is a braid of possible paths, designed in such a way that they can be played on other tiles in various orientations to create new paths for tokens to follow. If your path leads you to the edge or you collide with another player's token, you are eliminated.

That simple. Ideal for spatially-oriented players, but not for me. And I also feel that gameplay gets stereotyped pretty quickly. But YMMV.
