Squares

To achieve victory on this board of squares, you must overwhelm the center! The object of the game is to locate three of your own tiles in the centre row on a 5x5 grid. Players take turns to do one of: place a tile, move a tile, or use a tile's special power. The total value of tiles permitted in any row is 8, constraining both players. Tiles are double-sided, and you are not permitted to examine the back of an opponent's tile before a special power flips it.
