About this game

"The battle to connect civilization!" A head-to-head strategic thinking game where players compete to connect their own track to others already on the board. Players may enclose sections to capture their opponent's pieces. The winner is the player whose unplaced tiles have the LEAST number of connections on them.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 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.
