Twinkle Twinkle is a 2-4 player tile-drafting game that plays in roughly 20–30 minutes. Players draft from two rows of astronomy-themed tiles on a common observation board, with the top row for the current round and the bottom row as a preview for the next. Players place tokens to indicate selections, then simultaneously add chosen tiles anywhere on their personal 4×5 star chart boards. Token placement left-to-right sets the next round's turn order. The game ends when all star charts are filled. Six unique celestial elements score separately based on specific requirements. The presentation is cutesy but gameplay is abstract and puzzly, accessible to children and adults alike.
Thus it was with a mixture of excitement and embarrassment that I endeavored to try AllPlay's Twinkle Twinkle, along with the expansion, "How I Wonder" - a game obviously inspired by the children's nursery song-with my group of definitely non-child-aged gamers. Twinkle Twinkle is a tile-drafting game that has 2-4 players competing to assemble the most impressive star chart from nighttime observations
Each round of Twinkle Twinkle will have two rows of astronomy-themed tiles available for draft on a common observation board. The top row is available for the current round, and the bottom row is a preview of what will be available to draft in the upcoming round. In turn order, players will place their player-tokens atop the tile they would like to draft.
