Read the full game description

You are a blob. Eat the city. Grow big. Earn the most points. Each Round you will roll 2 dice and then use one those dice to draw a shape in the city and then use the other die to grow the shape that you used in the city. You eat/devour a city shape when you completely cover each square of its shape. Each polyomino placed in your city is never the same, as your blob continues to grow out of control! After you have completed the 16th roll/round, total your points earned from each city piece devoured. Then count each square in your largest blob die area, earning one point for each square in it. The player with the most points is the winner! -description from designer
