Modes and winning

Back to Start Here

Pick how long your match lasts. Then learn the ways to win. Every match has a clear goal.

Recap: You know the basics: tiles, coins, and duels.

In short: Pick a short or a long match. Win by reaching START with enough coins. In a short match, the richest player wins when rounds end.

How it works

1. Choose QUICK MATCH or CLASSIC before the match starts.
2. A Quick Match has a fixed number of rounds.
3. In each round, every player plays one turn.
4. When the last round ends, the richest player wins.
5. A Classic match has no round limit.
6. You can win early by reaching START with enough coins.
7. A map can have a gem on a gem tile.
8. Walk over the gem to collect it.
9. You also need the gem to win early.

Example

Mia and Leo sit on a sofa. Each one holds a phone.
They choose QUICK and the Grassland map.
The HOW TO WIN panel says the match lasts 8 rounds.

Both players start with 2,500 coins.
Mia picks FIRE as her element. Leo picks WATER.
Mia presses START GAME.

Tip: Short on time? Pick QUICK MATCH. It also plays faster.
