About the game
What you do in a play session
INK is a game that blends abstract strategy and economics into an engaging experience. You take on the role of a skilled artist, using ink to create stunning paintings. The core mechanic involves tile placement to form harmonious patterns, fulfilling contracts for points. The challenge lies in balancing spontaneity and planning, as each move affects not only your current canvas but also your future options. The use of a rondel adds a layer of strategy, limiting your actions and encouraging long-term thinking. With mechanics like resource management and pattern building, INK is perfect for those who enjoy games that challenge both the mind and creativity.
