Description
Exxit is a strategic board game designed by Vincent Everaert, where two players compete to extend their territory by gaining new hexagonal flagstones. The game starts with a minimal board made up of just four flagstones, and players use their eight pawns to try and outmaneuver each other. The twist is that players aim to leave their opponent's pawns stranded on the board, trapping them, and then release them later to gain an advantage. This simple yet original mechanism creates complex tactical and strategic situations that will keep you on your toes. As an abstract strategy game, Exxit requires players to think ahead and plan their moves carefully. With a playtime of just 40 minutes, it's a quick and intense game that's easy to learn, even for those familiar with board games. The game's modular board and tile placement mechanics add a layer of depth and replayability, making each game unique. First published in 2006, Exxit has already made a name for itself, winning the 2004 Concours International de Créateurs de Jeux de Société. If you're looking for a challenging and engaging game to play with a friend, Exxit is definitely worth checking out.
