Description

In Quartex, you'll take turns placing tiles to grow an expansive field, with each tile featuring a quarter of a symbol on each corner. The catch is that the corners of your tile must match the ones already in play, making for a fun and challenging puzzle. As you place tiles, you'll complete shapes and earn point tokens, but be careful - the value of each token depends on how many are left unclaimed. With simple rules that can be explained quickly, Quartex is easy to learn and plays in just 30 minutes, making it a great fit for 2 to 5 players. The game requires strategic thinking and a bit of luck, as you try to balance earning points with leaving tokens unclaimed to maximize their value. Will you come out on top, or will your opponents outmaneuver you? In Quartex, sometimes less is more, and the player with the most points wins.
