Tile Realm Rules

A tile-laying game where you grow the board one tile at a time, forming cities, roads and cloisters. Place your 7 meeples to claim regions and score at game end. You can't enter a region that already holds another meeple — the fight to merge regions is the heart of the game.

1. Draw 1 tile from the deck.
2. Place it adjacent to existing tiles so edges match. Rotation is free.
3. Optionally place 1 meeple on the tile you just placed, only if the region contains no other meeple.
4. Play passes to the next player.

• City: completed 2 pts/tile + 2 pts/shield; incomplete 1 pt/tile + 1 pt/shield.
• Road: 1 pt/tile (same for complete and incomplete).
• Cloister: 1 pt + 1 per filled adjacent tile (out of 8).
• Field (farmer) scoring is omitted in this implementation.
• If a region contains meeples from multiple players, the player with the most takes the points.

This build uses 12 tile types (about 46 tiles plus the starter). Regions don't score or return meeples mid-game; all scoring resolves at the end. Field scoring and some special tiles are planned for later.
