Abalone
From the Publisher...
Abalone is a thinking board game, sold up to 4 millions pieces in 30 countries. He (sic) was granted
to the rank of the "Game of decade" at the "festival international des jeux" in 1998. Easy to understand,
Abalone is universal with a simple goal: push 6 from 14 balls of the opponent from board according to
numerci(sic) superiority principle.
Do you know many games where anyone between 7 and 70 years old can learn the rules in less than a minute,
but a lifetime of playing isn't quite enough to master all of its many aspects?
Abalone is one of those brilliant inventions that owe their existence to a stroke of genius.
Simple? Certainly. Simplistic? By no means. For we all know that the possibilities of displacing balls,
mounting attacks, organizing defenses and combinations are endless and they are invariably strategic.
