Abstract Strategy
Description
In Bakari, a simple yet strategic board game, 2 to 4 players compete to move their pieces across the board. The game's ease of learning and short 30-minute playtime make it an excellent choice for a quick gaming session. Designed by Virginia Charves and published in 2002, Bakari falls under the abstract strategy category, which means players need to think critically to outmaneuver their opponents. The twist that makes Bakari exciting is the presence of four animals on the board, one of which acts as a block at any given time, restricting player movement. As players reach the goal, the blocking animal changes, forcing them to adapt their strategy. The first player to get all their pieces across the board wins, making Bakari a fun and challenging game that requires a combination of planning and quick thinking.
