Take It To The Limit!
From the Publisher...
Take it to the Limit is two games in one. Choose either the Nexus board, for that ultimate challenge, or the stylish Orchid board, for a quicker and distinctly different game. Both options can be played by up to six people, but can also provide hours of fun when you attempt to beat your 'personal best' score by playing Take it to the Limit as a solitaire game.
The Nexus Board: Score points by building continuous rows of colour from one side to the other. Just place one tile here and another one there, expanding and connecting your rows, but always remember that your plans may be ruined by that 'rogue' tile which refuses to fit in anywhere. It may seem easy at first, but awkward decisions will be just around the corner. Enhance your score by skilful use of 'gold' and 'silver' bonus tiles and by cunningly interlacing 'sunrays' and 'moonbeams' with your other scoring rows. If it all seems to be going desperately wrong, you can dispose of unwanted tiles in your 'scrapyard'. But beware - an 'untidy' scrapyard can cost you penalty points. Towards the end it gets tricky as you cover up more and more spaces on your board. All players start with an equal chance and will use exactly the same tiles, but with careful planning, discerning strategy and a little bit of luck, you can score more points than your opponents and win the game. Takes 45 minutes to play.
The Orchid Board: Choose either the 'sun' or 'moon' tiles to play a shorter game on this attractive board. The special orchid symbols allow you to set aside unwanted tiles, with an option to increase your score by relocating them at the end of the game. With all the fun and excitement of the larger game, the Orchid board is the ideal alternative when there is a shortage of time or space. Takes 25 minutes to play.
