This is a great two-player or team game - fun, fast-moving, easy to play, yet strategic in nature. Each player gets a game board on which you've got a finite amount of space to be filled in with numerous pieces, each of which is a different size and shape. Easy enough at the outset when your board is nearly empty. But as the game progresses and your board fills up, you may find yourself paying for decisions you made mere minutes ago. Why? Because a shape card flipped from the top of a deck dictates which shape you must place on a given turn, and if you've not been thinking and planning ahead, you may find yourself out of the action a lot sooner than necessary. The moment you can't find a place on the board for the shape in play, you've lost! So scan, plan, position, and plot, but try to leave open the spaces that can accommodate the greatest number of remaining shapes! Each game goes by quickly and is pure fun, but you've got to think to win!
