Each player has tiles numbered 0 through 3, with each tile having arrows that point in one to four directions orthagonally. The higher the value of the tile, the fewer arrows on it. Also, the 4x4 board has values on each space -- 0's in the four center spaces, 1's on the side spaces, and 2's in the corner.

Each player takes turns placing a tile on a space on the board that has not been played on by another player. After a player places a tile they score their points for that play -- points are totaled by adding the value of the tile plus the value of the board position, or all the values of the tiles that the arrows on the tile points to.

Will you grab the high scoring spots, or will let your tile score high by pointing toward other tiles?
