Editorial Review
In Tri-Ominos, a number-matching game, players begin by drawing several tiles, taking care to keep the numbered sides hidden from their opponents. The first piece is played and, depending on the numbers involved, bonus points might be awarded. With the first piece on the table, players start matching numbers. If they don't have a matching tile, they draw from the "well" until a match is made. They receive penalty points for each tile drawn, but will be awarded points when they finally make a match. Certain matches (closing a hexagon, or building a bridge) will earn players as many as 50 bonus points. Fun for the whole family, children will be adept at matching numbers wherever possible, and adults will appreciate the strategy involved in making the best moves for the most points. The first player to accumulate 400 points wins.
