Framework (Board Game)

Framework consists of 120 tiles, with each player starting with 22 tokens.On a turn, the lead player draws and reveals one more tile than the number ofplayers. Each player in turn selects a tile, with the lead player being forcedto take the final tile.

When you take a tile, place it adjacent to at least one other tile in yourdisplay, then see whether you complete any tasks on your tiles; each time youdo, cover that task with a token. Tiles contain 0–3 frames and 0–3 tasks,with each of these coming in four colors. A task might be, for example, a green3, and to complete the task, the tile bearing this task must be part of a set ofthree tiles that have green frames, whether directly or via an orthogonal chainof connection with tiles that have green frames.
Tasks might be two colors, e.g., red and brown, which means that both framecolors can be used to satisfy the task. Alternatively, a task might be 4 yellowor 4 brown. Also, conditional tasks exist in which you must first complete onetask before you can complete the second one.

Whoever first places all of their tokens wins. Framework also includes a sologame in which you attempt to place all of your tokens in an area of tiles thatis as close to a 5×5 grid as possible.
