Mattel Blokus Game

Fast-paced strategy game takes less than a minute to learn, but offers endless strategy and fun challenges for everyone. Each player gets a set of 21 pieces in red, blue, green or yellow and then takes turns placing them on the board. The goal of this game is for players to fit all of their pieces onto the board. When placing a piece, it may not lie adjacent to the player''s other pieces, but must be placed touching at least one corner of their pieces already on the board. The game ends when no more pieces can be placed down, and the player with the lowest number remaining wins. The 30-minute playing time is great for short attention spans and can also be repeated for an entire evening of fun. Game requires 2 to 4 players and is designed for children ages 7 and above.
