Each player in Bingolino starts by taking sixteen tiles from the pool of 66. These tiles are numbered 1-22, with each number appearing three times, and each player arranges these tiles in a 4x4 grid with the tiles face up in whatever order they wish.
On a turn, the player rolls 1-5 six-sided dice, then announces the number rolled. Each player can flip one tile in their grid matching this number face down; if the active player didn't flip a tile, they can choose to remove one of the dice to lower the total, then flip a tile with this number face down. If the active player still can't flip a tile face down, then they must flip one of their already face-down tiles face up.
When a player creates a row of face-down tiles, whether orthogonally or diagonally, they take a star token and place it at the end of this row. (If they have to flip a tile in this row face up, they don't lose the star, but neither would they gain another star for flipping this
