From BoardGameGeek
In the game Choconnect you are chocolatiers, immersing yourselves in a tantalizing world of confectionery mastery. Your task: skillfully arrange an assortment of chocolates to become the ultimate chocolatier and triumph in the sweetest challenge. To set up, put the board in the middle of the play area and all of the tiles in the cloth bag. On your turn, without looking in the bag, you take a tile from the bag and slide it on the board. You can slide the tile from any of the edge spaces on any of the four sides of the board, even if that space already contains a tile. When doing so you push other tiles in that row or column one space further in the direction in which you are sliding the tile. You are not allowed to slide a tile in a row that is already full (because you would be pushing other chocolates out of the box, we don't waste food!). The goal of the game is to create a line of chocolate tiles of the same type either orthogonally or diagonally. The number of tiles needed in the line to win is indicated by the number of decorations on it. Whoever succeeds in creating the winning line first wins the game.
