Description
XATS is a clever and strategic board game that's all about creating and destroying towers, with a twist. Designed by Néstor, this game was born from the leftover pieces of another game, Stax, and has evolved into a unique and engaging experience. With 2 to 3 players, the goal is to match the number of tiles in your reserve with the number of spikes on your topmost tile in play. It's a simple concept to learn, but don't be fooled - XATS has depth and can challenge even the toughest players. In this 20-minute game, each player starts with 13 tiles, called Xats, in their own color, with each tile featuring a unique arrangement of spikes. As you play, you'll need to manage your hand and strategically place tiles to build and destroy towers. With easy-to-learn rules and a playtime that's just right for a quick gaming session, XATS is a great choice for anyone looking for a fun and challenging abstract strategy game. First published in 2012, XATS has been delighting players with its clever gameplay and competitive spirit, making it a great addition to any game night.
