Add up your cards to claim squares, then hold them by two stones against everyone else.
An abstract line-building game with a card-driven twist. You play one to four numbered cards to place a stone on a matching square, but a square only counts as yours once you have two more stones there than anyone else.
Who it's for
Two or four players who like numbers, tight boards and abstract games without a theme getting in the way.
Not for you if…
You want atmosphere or dislike arithmetic on your turn. The presentation is dry, card draw can leave you unable to reach the square you need, and it feels more like an exercise than an adventure.
Vibe's take
Head-down arithmetic punctuated by the annoyance of someone stacking onto the square you were one stone from owning.
