Lex in Lemniscate (2016)

About this game

In the main game in Lex in Lemniscate, two players challenge one another to find logical and complete sequences of eight tokens. They do this by alternately placing a token — either yellow or blue — on a path in the shape of a lemniscate, and as soon as a player spots a valid pattern of eight tokens — that is, a sequence of eight tokens with the distance between them always obeying the same laws — that player wins. Additional games are available, including a multiplayer version and a version that pits one Master against everyone else.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 8.
• Rules load. At 3.9/5 this is a heavy game — read the rulebook before people arrive.
• Age. The publisher suggests 14 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
