Details

An abstract laying game with an actually very simple idea: form four stones of your own color in a row. For this you get six of your own hexagonal stones that you have to place on a game board. The first player places 1 of his stones on the start space. The next player places 1 of his tiles on 1 of the tiles already placed. This is how the game continues and each player tries to line up 4 of his own tiles. If all of the players' stones are on the game board and no one has yet won, the players must pick up 1 of their stones already on the board and immediately place it in another place. This can create "islands". The stones of the smallest island are returned to the respective players. The game ends when 1 of the players has placed 4 stones of his color in a straight line. It is not without reason that this game was nominated at the 2004 Toy of the Year election for the +12 category. In this game you sometimes have to make the daring choice between setting up your own strategy to get four in a row and the strategy to thwart your opponents. This is a very nice game and is reminiscent of the game Blokus. Number of players: 2 - 6 Age: from 7 years old Game duration: 15 - 45 minutes Content: - 1 game board - 48 hexagonal game pieces - game rules
