Description Match & Lock is a strategic positioning game, from 1 to 4 participants, suitable for the whole family and made entirely of wood. Rules To win, the player must create combinations of circles of their own color, placing the checkers or rotating on the board the multicolored checkers, taken at random from the bag. Each time the player succeeds in creating a combination of his own color, he earns points from each involved multicolored checker and must place a checker of his color above them, thereby blocking the rotation of adjacent multicolored checkers. Each multicolored checker has a value expressed in points. Who has more, the moment the last multicolored token is placed, wins the game! Link Scratch version
