Talo (2014)

About this game

Talo, a game for children and families, contains a lot of wooden tiles with which to build, and in the end players want to be the first on top. As co-designer Johann Rüttinger states, "It's a very good game to learn mathematics without learning..."

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.6/5 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.
