Ink

Players compete as painters laying down vivid ink tiles to craft striking compositions on their personal canvases. On each turn, players manage a hand of tiles and limited resources to fulfill contracts that score based on patterns and color harmony. Tile placement mechanics and pattern recognition drive planning: every placement changes available spaces and future options, so players balance opportunistic moves with longer-term strategy. The game mixes tile placement, hand management and resource management into a tight puzzle about building high-value combinations across multiple rounds.
