Here is a magical recipe if you want to do better than Daniel Smiley

When you select the tiles, take care to do straights like 1, 2, 3 ... or 3, 4, 5, 6...

If your straight contains  a single family then the formula for your points is
  • (Count of tiles) * 3 ^ (Count of tiles).
If your straight contains different families then the formula is
  • (Count of tiles) * 2 ^ (Count of tiles).

Remarks:
  • * is the multiplication operator
  • ^ is the power operator. 2^1=2, 2^2=2*2, 2^3=2*2*2, 2^4=2*2*2*2...

Little example:
The first series from the picture below give you 9 * 3 ^ 9 = 9 * 19683 = 177147 points!
The fourth one gives you less points because there is not only one family: 9 * 2 ^ 9 = 9 * 512 = 4608 points.




Enjoy!

Here is my way to get high scores: focus yourself on only one familly to get 170 000 points. If you are fast enough you can double you points!

  • Remove the tiles that don't belong to a familly from 1 to 9.
  • "Sacrifice" the 2 less promising famillies. Associate the tiles as fast as possibile without thinking. Keep on removing tiles that don't belong to a familly.
  • Now that enough room is made, you can surely associate the tiles from 1 to 9 of the third familly!
  • You should have a lot of points, if you can, do another serie, otherwise associate the last tiles as fast as possible.

Feel free to share you ideas to do better  Smiley

I am not sure how to play other than remoing apair at a time or to pairs the same at the same time.
I have no idea how to save one suite and discard other suites, and save numbers 1 to 9 in one suite.
is there a read me I have missed on how to do this ??

There is no magic and this method doesn't work for every levels.

You can only remove tiles by pairs. Sometimes there are no accessible tiles other than the ones from the 1 to 9 famillies.
When I say"sacrifice the 2 less promising famillies", I mean avoid touching the third one. If it is not possible, restart the layout to have a different configuration.
