Description
Pathagon is a simple yet strategic game of building paths that's quick to learn and fun to play. With its easy-to-explain rules, you can dive right into the game and start competing against your opponent in no time. The goal is to build a path from one side of the board to the other, but here's the twist - the two paths cross, adding a layer of complexity to every move. You'll need to think both offensively and defensively, trying to outmaneuver your opponent while protecting your own path. As a game of abstract strategy, Pathagon requires players to think critically and make tactical decisions. The "trapping" move adds an extra level of excitement, allowing you to remove one of your opponent's pieces from the board and gain an advantage. With its short playtime of just 10 minutes, Pathagon is perfect for a quick game night or a fun break from the daily routine. Designed by Mark Fuchs and first published in 2011, this base game is suitable for players of all ages and skill levels, making it a great addition to any game collection. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a fun and challenging game to play with a friend, Pathagon is an excellent choice.
