Grades K and up. Europe's 2003 game of the year! Develops logic and spatial perception while kids learn to be tactical. Players take turns placing pieces on their board, each starting from their corner. Each new piece must touch at least one other piece of the same color, but only at the corners! The goal is to get rid of all your pieces. The game ends when all players are blocked from laying down any more of their pieces. Includes one gameboard with 400 squares, 84 game pieces in four bright translucent colors, and an instruction guide.

Reviewer: Boardroom Staff 10/13/2006
As the Boardroom staff we spend a lot of time playing the games we sell. This is one of the games we stock that we just didn't have much interest in trying. Yeah, it's educational and yeah, it won a lot of awards, but really how much fun could it be. You just lay out some colored pieces on a board right? WRONG. This game was a blast. We finally sat down and played it. The first game we played was with two of our staff members and two children, ages 7 and 9. The different strategies used by kids and adults was significant. But after that first game the kids were killin' us. They picked up quick how to block us and we had a hard time playing around their blocks. We've played about 4 times in 2 days and really are enjoying this game. This would be an exceptional game for the classroom or the family room.
