Tantrix Discovery
Game Instructions:
Your aim is to build loops
of various shapes and sizes starting
with just three tiles.
Each new tile you add gives you a different and more challenging puzzle.
You may not find the first loop hard...but only the best can solve all
ten!
How to play
-
Turn all
of the tiles upside down so numbers face upwards.
Be careful not to confuse tiles 9. (dot at the bottom) and 6.
-
Turn over
tiles 1,2 and 3 and make a yellow loop with them.
A loop can be any closed shape, a perfect circle in this case.
As you go along, the loops will have less regular shapes.
-
Break up
the tiles, add tile 4, then make a new loop of 4.
The colour of the number on the tile just added tells you
what colour loop to make, so the 4-tile loop is red.
-
Now
continue up to 10 tiles, adding one tile at a time.
Each new loop must include all tiles picked up so far.
All other touching colours must match as well.
Remember that a loop can be any closed shape.
With less
than 10 tiles, only one color of loop is possible to create.
With all 10 tiles, each color has a solution. See chart below.
The more sets of Tantrix Discovery™ you add, the higher the number
you can achieve. With 2 sets of 10 tiles, you can create a loop of up to
20, with 3 sets, up to 30… The color on the back of tile # 4 for
example,
will indicate what color of loop to make when creating, 14, 24, 34 etc.
