Description

Get ready for a strategic showdown with Castello, a classic abstract strategy game designed by Carl Renström. First published in 1971, this game has been challenging players for decades. In Castello, two players compete to capture four castles or 28 of their opponent's pawns. The gameboard is divided into three sections, and players take turns moving their pieces horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. With 30 game-pieces at your disposal, you'll need to think carefully about each move to outmaneuver your opponent. Pawns can jump over each other, capturing enemy pieces and removing them from the game. Castles can be conquered by surrounding them with three of your pawns, and the goal is to capture four of them or wipe out a significant portion of your opponent's army. With a playtime of 60 minutes, Castello is a game that requires focus and strategic thinking, making it a great choice for fans of abstract strategy games.
