How to play Chip Connect
Play the card matching a board space, place your chip there, and connect five in a row before your rivals.
Watching two separate three-in-a-rows quietly come together into an unstoppable double threat is the quiet payoff that makes this feel more like a puzzle than luck.
- Tap a card in your hand, then tap the matching empty space on the board
- Jacks are wild and can go on any empty space
- If a card's matching spaces are both taken, discard it instead
💡 The four corners count as free spaces for everyone — build your lines toward them.
💡 Track which cards you and your rivals are holding versus discarding, since a scarce card left in hand may be the only way to complete a line.
