This was a wonderful new game! It is quick to set up, the rules are simple and easily learned, and the play provides a lot of fun for everyone. We have played it with various combinations of adults and children and everyone enjoys it. At first, it seems so simple that you might wonder how interesting it would be. The goal is simply to lay your pieces on the board, each player starting at different corner. Your pieces must touch by the corners only, which becomes more difficult to do as the board begins to be covered and your pieces start running into the areas being used by other players. The more players, the more challenging the game becomes. The pieces are plastic and fit nicely into the tray's squares; it's much more satisfying to use the plastic pieces than cardboard ones would have been. Each game goes fairly quickly and we often find ourselves playing multiple rounds. This sounded fun and it was!
