'''''Tantrix''''' is a hexagonal [[Tile-based game|tile-based]] [[abstract game]] invented by Mike McManaway from [[New Zealand]].  Each of the 56 different tiles in the set contains three lines, going from one edge of the tile to another.  No two lines on a tile have the same colour.  There are four colours in the set: red, yellow, blue, and green.  No two tiles are identical, and each is individually numbered from 1 through 56.
