Abstract Strategy
Description
In Ta Yü, a game of connections, players take turns drawing and placing tiles to extend their network across the board. The goal is to reach the edges of the board, with one side aiming for the western and eastern edges, and the opposing side trying to reach the northern and southern edges. The simple premise is elevated by the unique tile design, with each 3x1 tile having exactly three outlets, and the scoring system, which rewards players for balancing their efforts on both sides. As you play, you'll need to balance offense and defense, making strategic decisions about where to place each tile to maximize your score. With double-scoring special points on each side of the board, the game requires focus and tactical thinking. Easy to learn but engaging to play, Ta Yü is a great option for 2 to 4 players looking for a fun and challenging abstract strategy game that can be played in under 45 minutes.
