(More customer reviews)This is a great game for the kids, or for you and your kids. It reminds alot of folks of Scrabble in that you have a rack of tiles and have to play them on a board. In Tilez!, you have to pick one of your tiles and place them to match as many color edges as possible on the board. The more edges you match the higher your score. For adults, there's a more restrictive rule - you must match every edge that you play.
This game has 80 tiles, all "L"-shaped, all different, and all magnetic. This is important because when they first published this game a few years back, the tiles were not magnetic and they slid around alot. I'm happy to report that the magnetic tiles work great and they don't slide at all. Even the scoring markers, which also had the sliding problem in the previous edition, are now magnetic. The game also has full-color rules in both English and French.
They also sell a travel edition of this game which is less expensive but the tiles are (obviously) much smaller. The full-size edition is far superior for play at home.

Here's a game with magnetism! Each of the magnetic tiles is L-shaped and features three squares, usually of more than one color. You score by grouping colors, so where you place your tile is crucial. To keep things interesting, black is wild and stars double your points. You'll start small, but when the board fills up, you'll tackle a complex color grid with more opportunities to score and more challenges. Rules are included for a version for small children and a solitaire game, too. Game comes with 80 tiles, game board, 4 tile racks, scoring markers and instructions.Winner of a 1999 National Parenting Seal of Approval
