Rules

How to play

  • Start with 5 tiles in hand. Draw 1 to refill at the start of each turn.
  • First tile lands on your shore. Later tiles must touch one of your own tiles.
  • Click or hold a tile to grab it, click again to drop. Wheel, R / Q or 2‑finger tap rotates.
  • Each tile has a base value (center) and modifiers aimed at its neighbors.
  • A modifier hits the gem in that cell, or the next gem placed there. Gems that get moved trigger again, so effects can chain.
  • Drop a tile on Discard to pass. Discarded tiles reshuffle into the bag when it empties.
  • If none of your stones touch a free cell, you are cut off: start a new chain on any free cell.
  • Game ends when the last cell is filled (48 tiles). Highest score wins.

The game saves your games in progress, shells, tile sets, settings and your cookie choice in your browser's local storage. This data stays on your device and is not sent to us. You can remove it at any time by clearing your browser's site data.

Analytics, only with your consent

If you accept analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics to understand how Tokami is played. It sets cookies (such as _ga) and sends Google usage data: pages viewed, device and browser type, approximate location from your IP address, and game events such as the mode, tile sets, scores and length of a game. We use this only to improve the game. If you decline, Google Analytics is never loaded.

You can change your choice at any time with Cookie settings in the footer. Google's handling of this data is described in Google's privacy policy.

The game loads its fonts from Google Fonts, which means your browser requests them from Google's servers and shares your IP address with Google.

Tokami is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal data from them.
