About this board game

Mini FITS is a compact polyomino puzzle game for 1–4 players, with games lasting about 15 minutes. Each player fills a personal board with differently shaped pieces, aiming to create the most rewarding arrangement.

Cards are drawn from a pile to determine which piece players must take. Every player has a different start tile to place first, so the same sequence of pieces can demand different tactics from each player. Before sliding a piece down the board, it may be rotated or reversed.

Scoring is based on the quantity and configuration of squares left uncovered. On the second board, players can also earn bonus points when three matching symbols are exposed, adding another pattern to consider while placing pieces.

  • 52 cardboard game tiles and 13 building cards
  • Four game boards printed on both sides
  • Boards measuring 10 rows in height
  • Polyominoes made up of three, four, or five squares
  • A compact travel format with no ramps or plastic covers

Mini FITS is the smaller travel version of FITS, retaining the same core gameplay while reducing the physical size and component count. Instead of ramps and plastic covers, the box provides a place to mount the game boards, making the set considerably smaller.

With its rotating pieces, shared card-driven decisions, and varied starting positions, Mini FITS challenges players to plan ahead while adapting to the pieces they receive. It reimplements FITS in a more portable format without changing the central puzzle of covering the board effectively.
