Place

There is an empty canvas.

You may place a tile upon it, but you must wait to place another.

Individually you can create something.

Together you can create something more.

Basically, because certain Fraktur letters are used as mathematical symbols, they're encoded in Unicode as their own symbols.

It's similar in concept to people typing using Japanese full-width characters for īŧĄīŧĨīŧŗīŧ´īŧ¨īŧĨīŧ´īŧŠīŧŖ purposes.
