GridBlock

Product Description


Can you block without being blocked?

Players take turns placing their game pieces onto the grid. The rules are simple - Pieces of the same color MUST touch, and pieces of the same shape must NOT touch.

Meanwhile, you also want to keep as many pegs adjacent to your game pieces open as possible.

Be clever. Be creative.

Whoever places the most pieces onto the grid wins the game. Or, whoever has the most open pegs surrounding their game pieces wins the game!

    Educational and challenging. Exceeded my expectations.

    This is a deceptively challenging game that requires attention to detail and thinking several steps in advance--much like a simplified version of chess. Each round goes fairly quickly, so you can play several rounds even if you have only a few spare minutes for it. My 6-year-old grandson really enjoys it, and I think I enjoy it even more than he does.

    Good game that we played in phases. Just getting the blocks down, following some of the rules and the all of the rules. It has been a good learning tool with the kids especially for spatial skills

    Not enough or clear enough or enough instructions to be able to play as intended.

    A game that allows siblings of a range of ages to play together during this period of isolation.

    I tutor children as I'm a retired school teacher. Almost everyone loved it - the exception was a first grader who got frustrated with it. All the others begged to keep on playing!

    I would love to have a more convenient box - as I carry my materials in and out of the library to tutor, the box kept coming open in my satchel and spilling the pieces. Perhaps a little bag for them?
