Description

Blockers! The Card Game is a fast-paced and strategic game for 2 to 4 players that can be learned in no time, thanks to its simple rules. Designed by Kory Heath and published in 2012, this abstract strategy card game is all about area majority and influence, as well as set collection. Players compete to claim victory cards on a 4x4 grid, with the goal of collecting the most cards by the end of the game. Each turn, a player plays a hand card that specifies a row, column, or 2x2 region, allowing them to claim a victory card in that location. As the game progresses, players must think strategically about which cards to claim and when, as each new card must match the color or shape of the previous one. With a playtime of just 20 to 30 minutes, Blockers! The Card Game is a great option for a quick game night or a fun break from more complex games. The game's simple rules and short playtime make it accessible to players of all skill levels, while its strategic depth and competitive gameplay ensure that it will remain engaging and challenging for experienced players. With its unique blend of area majority and set collection mechanics, Blockers! The Card Game is a great choice for anyone looking for a fun and strategic card game.
