Connnect is a board game released in 2024 for 2–4 players, 30–45 minutes per game, and ages 8 and up. It was designed by Sarawut Jirawaree and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling, Simultaneous Action Selection, and Paper-and-Pencil.
Connnect is an abstract roll-and-write game. The players try to write numbers in the right zones, and claim as many Connnects as they can to get points. Whoever do their best and get the most point win the game. The game is played over twelve rounds. Each round has three phases: Roll Phase, Fill Phase and Claim Connect Phase. Roll phase : Active Player rolls all three dice and choose one of those dice to be the Zone Die, another two dice will be called the Number Dice. Fill Phase : Each player MUST simultaneously write two numbers depicted on the Number Dice in the indicated zone from the Zone Die. Claim Connnect Phase : Players simultaneously claim “Connect 3”, “Connect 4” or “Connect 5”; draw the outline of the connected shape by using the numbers in play area in ascending order, descending order, or all same numbers. Claiming Connnects give players bonuses and points. These bonuses help player to claim the next Connnects easier or even create combos to claim multiple Connnects at a time. The more claiming Connnect, the more points and bonuses.
Connnect supports 2–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Connnect is 30–45 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Connnect for ages 8 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
