Description
Tres is a simple yet strategic board game designed by Joerg R. Bauer, first published in 1998. The goal is straightforward: get three stones in a row, easy enough, right? Not quite, as blockades come into play, making it a challenge to achieve. This abstract strategy game is perfect for two players looking for a fun and quick competition, lasting around 30 minutes. The rules are easy to learn, making it accessible to new players, but don't let that fool you - the game requires strategic thinking to outmaneuver your opponent. With pattern building as its core mechanic, Tres demands players to think ahead and adapt to the changing game board. It's a great option for those who enjoy abstract strategy games and are looking for a compact, yet engaging experience.
