Squashed (2013)

About this game

A three-dimensional board game in the shape of a cube. Eliminate your opponents by strategically moving up or around the cube in any vertical or horizontal direction. If you pass over or land on an opposing piece it is squashed and removed from the game. If you land on the King piece the entire cube gets flipped to another side and all those pawns are "squashed." The last pawn standing wins.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 6 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
