Threees! - Rules of Play says:
Threees! is an abstract game with 81 tiles. There are 3 sets of 27 tiles. Each tile in a set has one of 3 different shapes, 3 different colours and 3 different quantities (number of shapes). The tiles are played directly on to a flat surface or table. There is an initial setup round to find the starting player and place some starting tiles on the table. No player scores in this setup round. All players then takes 3 tiles at random from the draw pile (or bag).
On their turn a player can either play their tiles or exchange them. To play, strategically place 1-3 tiles in a line adjacent to tiles already on the table, so making and/or extending line(s) with the existing tiles. The maximum number of tiles that can be in a line is 9.
