Balloon Boing is a fast-paced, abstract strategy game for two players, where rival teams of Cat and Dog balloonists compete for supremacy over the cloud arena. The goal is to either eliminate the opponent's pieces through skillful maneuvers or conquer both of their crucial Home Base spaces. The core of the game is the Boing Squad: Single balloons are weak, but when they link up in a line, they form a mighty unit. Only a numerically superior Boing Squad can push the opposing balloons from their positions—or send them flying right off the board! Watch out for the Tornados: Every time you lose a balloon, you get the consolation prize of placing a chaotic Tornado Marker on the board. Push a balloon into a Tornado—or the Tornado onto a balloon—and both pieces are immediately removed from the game! Master the teamwork of your Boing Squad and utilize the turbulent whirlwinds to dominate the cloud arena! -description from designer
