Description

This game works like Tic-Tac-Toe combined with playing pieces that look like checkers, but move like a king in chess. It is played on a 4x4 grid, with each player setting up their pieces in a row on opposite sides. On each turn, a player moves their piece one space orthogonally or diagonally. The object is to get 4 in a row orthogonally or diagonally on any row other than your starting row OR to get all your pieces placed in each corner. The game has some really attractive bakelight pieces.
