Description

Four is a quick and strategic board game for two players that can be learned in no time. Designed by Stephen Tavener and published in 2012, it's a tile placement game that's all about outmaneuvering your opponent. Players take turns placing pieces on the board, following simple yet challenging constraints that require careful planning. The goal is to be the last player able to place a piece, and with a playtime of just 15 minutes, you can fit in a game or two on the go. As you play, you'll need to think ahead and block your opponent's moves while creating opportunities for yourself. With its abstract strategy and easy-to-learn rules, Four is a great game for fans of puzzle games and strategic thinking. It's no wonder it won the BoardGameGeek Best Combinatorial 2-player Game of 2013 award, proving that even a simple game can be surprisingly deep and engaging.
