Juego de cumplimiento de patrones, con una matriz de losetas reversibles de 3x3. En su turno el jugardor tiene cuatro cartas. Puede descartar una carta para realizar una acción que puede ser voltear una carta o intercambiar una loseta con otra ortogonalmente adyacente. El objetivo es cumplir los patrones que se describen en las cartas. Cuanto más dificil es el patrón, más puntos otorga. Vienen en la propia carta. Probado en la bga. Es sencillo y muy entretenido. Recomendable.
