An abstract thinking game. Abalone is an in-depth game that you will master after each game. At the same time you notice that the number of possibilities is increasing ... Attack and defense have to be well matched to keep the chances of winning healthy. Learning to think and plan ahead is therefore a necessity. Two players sit opposite each other and place their 14 round stones according to the starting position. It is his turn to move one, two or three marbles next to each other 1 space in any direction. No other marbles of your own may be moved. If there are 1 or 2 strange marbles in line with those marbles, they may be pushed along in certain cases: The attacker must be stronger - this is only the case in 3-1, 3-2 or 2-1 situations - and there must be a box are free in the push direction. However, if you succeed in pushing an opponent's marble "overboard" in this way, you can win the game. Whoever is the first to eliminate six marbles from the opposing team wins. Fans of abstract thinking games have a gem in their hands here: The rules of the game are simple, the game is in-depth and many strategies are possible. What else do you need? Number of players: 2 Content: - 1 game board - 14 white marbles - 14 black marbles - game rules
