Blockits (2022)

About this game

Blockits, first released as Juanito Blockits, is a roll-and-write game of managing blocks, both placing them in rows and using them to block others! Each player has an individual game board, and each round you place the figure rolled on the die in your game area, either to complete one or more lines or to maximize the number of blocked spaces. You also want to create specific figures to score more points, but the game boards rotate from one player to another, which might complicate your plans.

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 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
