Product Information

Assuming you have at least one other person to play with, the most important thing that you will need to play is your very own set of Tri-Ominos. Tri-Ominos will get the whole family involved and will give you fun entertainment for hours. The game is as easy as matching numbers with numbers that are listed on your Tri-Ominos. Sound easy? Try again! While strategy is not necessary, it can be a huge part of Tri-Ominos. For example, if you play a tile that has a 5, 3, and 2 on each corner this tile is worth 10 points to the player’s score. On a piece of paper create a column for each player. As plays are made the scorekeeper adds or subtracts points for each player in their column.

After the first player has played the beginning tile, the player to the left attempts to play a tile that matches a side of the piece in play.Determine the value of each tile by calculating the combined total of each number that is on the corner of the piece. After a bridge has been formed and a player matches two sides of a Tri-Omino, he receives the sum of the three numbers plus a 40 point bonus.

It is also important to ‘think ahead’ before playing tiles as it can be costly to keep having to draw tiles.
