How To Play

Winning The Game

Place land tiles to grow your territory turn by turn. You win a realm by fully fencing it in with fitting borderlines.

Tile Laying

After picking a tile, you can rotate it with a left-click or by pressing space. To place the tile, click on a highlighted field. Or click on your hand to put it back.

Drawing New Tiles

By clicking this button, you add two new tiles from the stack to your hand. You cannot hold more than 4 tiles, though. The game ends after the last tile is drawn.

Camera Control

You can move the camera by dragging the blue navigator window and change zoom by clicking on the two magnifier buttons or rolling the mouse wheel.

Playing Guard-Towers

Pick up a tower and click on an empty city-circle to claim a city. Claimed cities are worth 1 point when a realm is closed. After the game ends, each closed realm is scored again for the player with the most adjacent cities.
