Tantrix Rankings
The ranking of online players is calculated from a database of over 2 million games. New players begin to move up or down the national and world rankings every time they complete a game, depending on the rank of their opponent and the size of their win. When players reach a rank of 950, they are eligible to become Tantrix Masters.

Tournaments
The most eagerly anticipated events on the Tantrix calendar each year are online and table tournaments. Their popularity has come a long way since humble beginnings in 1998 when the World Champion was chosen from the year-end lobby rankings. Nowadays tournaments are spread throughout the year with the Tantrix World Championship running annually from August to November.

Real Tantrix tiles
Early editions of Tantrix (1987-1992) were made from cardboard and plastic. Since 1993 the tiles are made from a synthetic plastic which is attractive, durable and tactile. Over the years, Tantrix has won numerous awards around the world such as the British "Gold Award for Best Game" and the Hungarian "Toy of the Year Award", both in 2003.
