HOW TO PLAY
Latice takes three minutes to learn how to play, 20 minutes to play the game but a lifetime to master. That is at least what the manufacturer says. It is a fun family game that can involve even kids as young as six years old. There is also plenty of strategy in this game once you get a hang of it.

Latice is a matching game where you try to tiles by shape or color. With the addition of special tiles and moves, it sure opens up the possibility to take advantage of special combinations giving you and upper hand on your opponent. Latice is fun, quick and great for almost everyone. Give this new board game a try at your next get together. Don't forget the rules and instructions below in case you get into a bind while playing.

Question: On a regular move, the rules state: "On your turn you add one tile to the board next to an existing tile, matching all adjacent (not diagonal) tiles based on either color or shape." I think the intent of that rule is that the minimum requirement for matching is that either color or shape as a match will suffice as a legal move. Because there are more than one of each tile, there will be times when so you could put down a tile that matches an adjacent tile both in color and in shape. The rule would be clearer if it stated "matching all adjacent tiles in at least one respect, either color or shape." That makes sense in the logic of the game, which involves making blocks of matching tiles, not strings of tiles. On the other hand, if the intent is to preclude placing a tile that matches both in color or shape, that would make the game too difficult, in my view. Unlike Quarkle, for example, you are not rewarded in Latice by stringing together a line of six tiles without replicating a tile in both color and shape. "And the Latice rule itself does not expressly so provide. If matching in both color and shape is prohibited, the rule would need to say "matching all adjacent tiles based on either color or shape but not both." Further, if double matching were prohibited, then why is there not a diagram shown precluding that, since the scenario will definitely arise? I think you might consider clarifying the rule; this disagreement has almost ruined the game for friends of mine!!
