Linyo 2025

Try to fill your game board as completely as you can in Linyo using only four lines.

Each player has a player sheet showing a grid of squares in three colors, some of which feature a star. To set up, roll the four dice, which show the three colors equally across their faces. Place a circle on four squares in your grid that match the colors rolled.

On a turn, the active player rolls the four dice; if all dice show the same color, they can set three dice to the colors of their choice, but otherwise the dice lay untouched. Each player must then start one line (from a circle) or extend one line, passing through at least two squares that match the colors rolled. If the line hits a star, a player can extend that line one additional space.

If a player cannot extend a line by at least two spaces, they must cancel a line with an X. Additionally, they must X any line that cannot be extended. When one player has Xed all of their lines, the game ends, and whoever has marked off the most spaces wins.
