Nekonyancer[img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img6785ed7addeb10.22275473.jpg[/img] You know how to play Tic-Tac-Toe. You know how to play Rock-Paper-Scissors. But can you play them at the same time? [green][tip] This tutorial is best viewed on a computer![/green]1maintitlebar_content000
NekonyancerIn *Linx,* players will take turns placing tiles from their hand onto the board, either face up or face down. Each player has tiles of a different color, and each tile has an *icon* on one side - [blue]rock, paper, or scissors.[/blue] [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img6785ed7b0b0df9.92670127.jpg[/img]2maintitlebar_content000
Nekonyancer[green]To win, you must create one of the following arrangements on the board:[/green] *1.* 3 of your own tiles in a row, all face up. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img6785ed7b25e9a7.05188377.jpg[/img] *2.* 3 of your own tiles in a row, all face down. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img6785ed7b426250.40667342.jpg[/img] [red]Either way, the icons on the tiles do not matter.[/red]3maintitlebar_content000
Nekonyancer[green]Looks like we're up first![/green] All we can do on the first turn of the game is play a face-up tile. *Select [green]this rock tile[/green] in our hand.* A ghost of the tile should have appeared on the board. *Click on the ghost and then on "Play Tile" at the top!*4maintitlebar_content010player_tiles_item_14 8
Nekonyancer*Great!* Whenever you play a face-up tile, you draw *two more tiles* from your deck. [blue]Looks like we drew another rock and another scissors![/blue]1player_tiles_item_1565c76b2d58ab200player_tiles_item_15 7 player_tiles_item_4 7
NekonyancerFrom now on, all face up tiles must be played *adjacent* to at least 1 existing tile. [blue]Our opponent will demonstrate.[/blue]2tile_3365c76b2d58ab200
Nekonyancer[blue]Now it's our turn again![/blue] Remember, one way to win is to get three face up tiles in a row. Let's push toward that. *Select [green]this tile.[/green] Place it directly above our first tile.*1maintitlebar_content65c76b6a6a50310player_tiles_item_4 8
NekonyancerUh-oh! Our opponent saw that we were making a row of face up tiles, so they placed a tile [green]*face-down*[/green] on one of them! This can only be done if the icon on the top tile *beats* the one under it, according to the rules of Rock-Paper-Scissors! [green]In this case, they used a Paper tile to beat our Rock tile![/green]1tile_3365c76b8fd333d00tile_33 3
NekonyancerLet's give them a taste of their own medicine! *Select [green]this rock tile.[/green] Place it on top of our opponent's scissors tile!*2tile_3465c76b8fd333d10player_tiles_item_3 8
Nekonyancer*Great job!* Note that this time we did *NOT* draw 2 new tiles. You only draw new tiles when you play one *face up!* [green][tip] Playing a tile face down is a great way to block your opponents, but playing a tile face up will give you a bigger and more flexible hand![/green] Next, I'll fast-forward a few turns so you can see the end of the game.1tile_3465c76ba359c4d00
Nekonyancer[red]There we go![/red] Three of our own tiles in a row, all face-down. *Victory!* (Remember, 3 of our own tiles, all face-up, also works.) There are just a few more things I need to mention...1tile_1465c76c177676700tile_34 1 tile_24 1 tile_14 1
NekonyancerFirst of all, [blue]the size of the board is limited.[/blue] In a 2-player game, we cannot place a tile that would exceed the boundaries of a *4x4 grid.* With more players, it's *5x5.*2maingameview_menuheader65c76c177676700
NekonyancerThere's one other way you can spend your turn: [blue]you can pass.[/blue] This can only be done if you have no tiles in your hand or can't play any of the tiles in your hand. After passing, you draw two tiles.3maingameview_menuheader65c76c177676700
NekonyancerIf the grid is full, no one has achieved a victory condition yet, and no one is able to play any more tiles, [green]whoever has the most tiles visible wins the game.[/green] If you want a longer game, you can change the game to a Best-of-3 or Best-of-5 in the *lobby options!*4maingameview_menuheader65c76c177676700
Nekonyancer[blue]*Thank you for playing through this tutorial for Linx!*[/blue] If you have any questions about the tutorial, feel free to send *Nekonyancer* a message! A big thank you goes out to *tchobello* for bringing this game to BGA! Have fun! :D5maingameview_menuheader65c76c177676700
