Tiles That Do Not Fit
Azul, designed by Michael Kiesling and released by Plan B Games in 2017, won the Spiel des Jahres in 2018. Inspired by Portuguese azulejo tiles, it asks players to draft colorful tiles from factory displays. On each turn, you take all tiles of one color from a display, pushing the rest into the center.
Tiles go onto pattern lines of one to five spaces, and completed lines move one tile to the wall at the end of the round. Tiles that do not fit drop to the floor line, which costs penalties growing from minus one to minus three. The first player to take from the center also takes the first player marker, which counts as a floor penalty.
The game ends after the round in which a player completes a horizontal wall row. End bonuses reward each completed row with two points, each column with seven and each color set of five with ten.
