Qwirkle Java Server and Android Client

What is Qwirkle?

Qwirkle is a tile-based game for 2-4 players. Each player has a hand of six tiles, and the goal of the game is to score the most points by forming rows or columns of tiles with the same shape, color, or number. Read more about the game here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qwirkle

How to Play Qwirkle

  1. On your turn, draw a new tile from the bag or take one from the table.
  2. Place one of your tiles on the table, either starting a new row or column or extending an existing one.
  3. If your tile completes a row or column of at least three tiles, you score points for each tile in the row or column.
