About the game
Qwixx: Connected consists of two new scorepads that provide twists on the normal way of playing Qwixx. With "The Steps", each player takes a different scoresheet from A-E, and each of these scoresheets has a meandering row of black-bordered spaces that crosses the four colored rows on a player's sheet. The game is played like normal, but now in addition to scoring the number of Xs in the four colored rows, you also score points for the black row that criss-crosses everything else, scoring for 0-11 Xs depending on how many spaces you mark. With "The Chain", each player takes a different scoresheet from A-E, and each of these scoresheets has numbers in adjacent spaces that are circled and connected by a line, such as the red 9 and the yellow 9 or the yellow 3 and the green 11. Whenever you X out one of the circles in a chain, then you automatically cross out the other circle in the chain — even if that color has been marked to the right of the circle or is finished. Now you have second chances to fill in spaces that might otherwise lie empty!

Questions and answers
Qwixx: Connected supports 2–5 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 Qwixx: Connected is 15 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 Qwixx: Connected 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.
Qwixx: Connected has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
Qwixx: Connected belongs to these categories: Dice and Expansion for Base-game. Its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Paper-and-Pencil. Categories describe the theme and setting of a game, while mechanics describe what players actually do on their turns. Each mechanic links to a catalogue hub with similar games, which helps when you want something comparable.
The credited designers of Qwixx: Connected are: Steffen Benndorf.

The catalogue lists Qwixx: Connected as an expansion for Qwixx. Expansions add new content, rules or scenarios to the base game and usually cannot be played on their own, so you need Qwixx to use it. Check that your edition of Qwixx is compatible, as some expansions were revised between editions.
