Qwirkle is Scrabble for people who don't like word games. You form chains of tiles based on color or shape and play them like Scrabble. It's easily taught and highly enjoyable. |

Imagine a language-independent version of Scrabble... perhaps picture the hybrid offspring of Scrabble and Set. This is one of the best games you can find and quite fun for many different groups. |
Qwirkle reminds me of Ingenious, with the need to build rows of tiles to score points. However, one big difference is that the plays in Qwirkle are not nearly as obvious and easy to spot, and you are rewarded much more for attention and pattern recoqnition. It is a simple but deep game that can be enjoyed by anyone. |
