(More customer reviews)The basic idea of Loopit is similar to Scrabble only instead of forming words your forming a giant continuous line that branches off in many different directions. In the end, the board will look a bizarre maze with no specific starting point or ending point. Each tile has a line extending off at least two of its sides, and is worth between 1-8 points. On each turn, you play 1-3 tiles on spaces on the board that connect to the line(s) of the tiles adjacent to yours. After each turn, you draw tiles from a fancy blue bag so that you always have tiles on your tray. There are a wide variety of designs for the lines on the tiles, giving them different and unique looks. For example, some have loops, some have right angles, and some are straight lines(there are only four tiles though that are worth 8 points, and each one has a very specific design). Like Scrabble, there are many bonus spaces scattered throughout the board that can multiply your score if you play on them. In this game, they can multiply your score by as little as 2 or as much as 6. The game ends after all the tiles have been drawn out of the bag and either all of them have been played or no one is able to play their remaining tiles. At that point, the player with the highest score wins.
Overall, Loopit is a very fun and unpredictable game with lots of twists and turns (no pun intended). The quality of the materials that make up this game are top notch. It's easy to understand, it requires a lot of strategy, and, like Scrabble, it also requires a bit of luck. It really keeps your mind busy the entire game as you try figuring out the best places to play your tiles. You obviously want to score a lot of points on each turn, but you don't want to set your opponents up to do the same. I actually enjoy Loopit more than Scrabble. It does borrow some basic ideas from Scrabble, but the game feels completely different once you begin playing it. It's really creative and unique in its own respect (more so than Scrabble, I think), and it's a great strategy game that anyone can enjoy.

LoopitThink Scrabble® meets logic and you've got an idea for how this great family game works. Connect your tile to any of the twisting lines on the board and score points based on the point value of the tile you played, the place you played it and other neighboring tiles. This international sensation is new to the U.S. but a great new twist on an old favorite.
