This is a fascinating and highly original game in which players engage in battle-like offensive and defensive moves while attempting to get their Sphere onto the Bullseye at the center of the board. Every player has a number of playing pieces, each of which has a distinct geometric shape (Cylinder, Pyramid, Prism, Cone, . . .) and rank. Those rankings determine what happens when two opposing pieces meet on the game board - which comes away as victor and which is vanquished. The huge curve ball in all of this is that the rankings can change at a moment's notice based on the flip of a card brought about by a player entering the Red Zone (four squares at the center of the board). While jockeying to get their Spheres to the Bullseye, players use supporting pieces to defend and attack, staying aware of the current rankings while remaining deeply alert to the possibility of a sudden change in power dynamic. The result is an exciting, highly invigorating mix of thought, luck, and strategy. For 2 - 4 players.
