Lino

Lino is a variant of all the games on forming rows of pieces, players alternate in placing one of their pieces on a tile and score for completing a row as well as for rows of four or more of their own pieces at the end of the game. But the interesting fact is that you first make up the board – you start with a given configuration and then each player may move three tiles – they must remain connected to another tile by corner or border, must not be moved twice and must not be moved to a spot where another tile has been before.
