Frequently asked questions

How do you keep score in Triominos?

Each player scores the sum of the three corner numbers on their placed tile. Bonus points are added for bridges (+40), hexagonal placements (+50), and the combination of both (+90). Drawing without playing costs −5 points per turn.

What is a hexagon bonus in Triominos?

You earn a hexagon bonus when you place the sixth and final tile on a hexagon, completing the shape. This earns +50 bonus points on top of the tile value. If you simultaneously close a bridge, the combined bonus is +90 points.

Can I enter negative scores?

Yes. If a player must pass or draw without placing, you can enter negative values. ScoreApp adjusts the running total automatically.

How does a Triominos game end?

The game ends when a player places all their tiles. That player receives +25 points plus the sum of tile values remaining in all other players' hands.
