Quoridor

Description

Quoridor is a surprisingly deep abstract strategy game with simple rules that's easy to learn. The goal is to get your pawn to the opposite edge of the board, but it's not that straightforward. On each turn, you can either move your pawn or place a wall to hinder your opponents. The catch is that you can't completely block them off, so you need to think strategically about where to place those walls. With 2 to 4 players and a playtime of just 15 minutes, Quoridor is a quick and fun game that's great for families or casual gamers. Despite being published in 1997, its maze-like gameplay still holds up today, making it a great introduction to abstract strategy games for kids and adults alike. With no in-game text required, it's accessible to everyone, regardless of language.
