Contactic (1973)

This game in travel format is played on a 3-piece board, 9x13 in size when assembled. Each player has 60 tiles. They come in 6 different designs, having 1-4 sides in the player's color and 0-3 sides in neutral white.

Every turn, a player draws one of his tiles and places it on the board according to the placing rules. Since the players have no tiles in hand to choose from, the chance that a tile cannot be placed (and a turn is missed) is relatively high. However, the unplayable tiles come into game later.

The game ends, when either all tiles are laid out or no further placement is possible. The player with the largest contiguous "island" is the winner.
