Grackles

Grackles are noisy, iridescent birds that love to gather on telephone wires at sunset throughout the southwestern United States. Grackles is a lightly themed abstract strategy game in which players line up as many of their birds in a row on telephone wires to score as many points as possible. On each turn, players take 1 action:

• place a tile with 4 coloured spots and telephone wires;
• connect 2 matching spots with their birds;
• extend an existing line of their birds;
• or rotate an unoccupied tile.

The player with the most birds on wires at the end of the game wins.
