Love, love, love this game. Suitable for youngsters too. Some strategic moves work and then a 4 year old beats you because they're making a 'road'!
I like being able to play with my chess playing husband and beating him because he blocks himself in :-D
Very portable game if you just take the board and the pieces in separate bags.
Product Description
Stake your claim and protect your territory with the Blokus game! It takes less than a minute to learn, but offers endless strategy and fun challenges for the whole family. Each player gets a set of 21 pieces – in red, blue, green, or yellow – then takes turns placing them on the board. There’s just one rule: each piece you play must touch at least one other piece of the same color, but only at the corners! The goal is to fit the most pieces on the board. The game ends when no more pieces can be placed down, and the player with the lowest number remaining wins!
