On a flip, a participant both purchases one of many three patches standing clockwise of the spool or passes. To buy a patch, you pay the price in buttons proven on the patch, transfer the spool to that patch’s location within the circle, add the patch to your sport board, then advance your time token on the time monitor various areas equal to the time proven on the patch. You’re free to position the patch wherever in your board that doesn’t overlap different patches, however you most likely wish to match issues collectively as tightly as attainable.
