Blokus takes less than a minute to learn. The goal is to place all of your tiles on the board with only their corners touching. The challenge is that your opponents are trying to do the same thing! Excitement and strategy squares off at every move.

Develops logic and spacial 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. Ages 5 and up.
