"Easy to start – quick to win" also applies to QWIRKLE FLEX, as the straightforward placement rules from the successful QWIRKLE remain unchanged: Place a row of the same shapes in different colors or the same colors with different symbols to score as many points as possible. New is the fact that the background color of the wooden tiles now also earns additional points. The more often the same background appears in the diagonal, the more points you earn! This opens up surprisingly new tactical possibilities while keeping the rules simple.
