Alcazar

Description

Alcazar is a classic abstract strategy game that's been challenging players since 1978. Designed by Martin Davison, this game is all about outmaneuvering your opponent in a battle of wits. With its simple rules and short playtime of just 30 minutes, Alcazar is the perfect game for a quick showdown between two players. The goal is straightforward: either trap your opponent's pawn by enclosing it within four walls or occupy their starting square. The game takes place on a 4x4 grid, with each player starting on diagonally opposite corners, surrounded by four walls. On each turn, you can move one wall to either free your pawn or block your opponent's. With only 8 walls to work with, every move counts, and you'll need to think strategically to outmaneuver your opponent. The enclosure mechanics add a fun twist to the game, as you try to corner your opponent's pawn while keeping your own safe. With its easy-to-learn rules and deep strategy, Alcazar is a game that will keep you coming back for more, whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun and challenging way to spend 30 minutes.
