How the Game Plays
Setup Each player gets a personal board. 9 factory displays loaded with 4 colored tiles each. Center pool starts empty.
Core mechanic On your turn, take ALL tiles of one color from a factory display. Remaining tiles slide to center pool. Add to one of your 5 mosaic rows.
Scoring When a row fills, move one tile to the wall (mosaic). Score points for adjacent tiles. Penalty for unplaced overflow tiles.
Winning Game ends when one player completes a horizontal row. Bonus points for full rows, columns, and color sets. Highest score wins.
Why Korean Players Choose This

Azul has a Korean edition (아줄) distributed by 코리아보드게임즈 — both versions play identically. The choice between US import and Korean edition comes down to price and availability. The game itself is fully visual; once you learn the rules, English is unnecessary. The tiles are heavy resin (not cardboard) — premium tactile experience.

Shipping

Free shipping on every order, with no minimum. No handling fees, no customs processing charges, nothing added at checkout.

Orders are dispatched within 1 to 2 business days. A tracking number is sent to your email once your parcel is on its way. International transit to Korea typically takes 7 to 14 days depending on customs clearance.

All orders ship in plain unmarked boxes for discretion.
Customs & Import

All orders are processed as personal-use overseas purchases and clear Korean customs without requiring KC certification. Your shipment is handled using your Personal Customs Clearance Code (PCCC) and is trackable via Korea Customs Service UNI-PASS. Personal-use imports from the United States with a declared value under USD 200 generally qualify for duty-free clearance; if any duty applies, it is payable by the customer at the time of receipt.

If you do not yet have a PCCC, you can get one free in under five minutes at unipass.customs.go.kr.
About Us

Plan B Games (formerly Next Move Games) is a Canadian publisher best known for Azul, which won the Spiel des Jahres (Game of the Year) award in 2018 — the most prestigious honor in board game design. Plan B is recognized for high-quality components (resin tiles, premium production) and abstract strategy gameplay. Azul has a Korean edition distributed by 코리아보드게임즈.

A Korean edition of this game is also distributed locally in Korea. This listing is for the original US English edition — both versions play identically; the choice comes down to packaging preference and price.
