PENTAGO by Mindtwister
Taking turns, the two players place a marble of their colour onto an unoccupied space on the board, and then rotate one of the sub-boards by 90 degrees either clockwise or anti-clockwise.
The object of the game is to get five in a row, but you must be wary of your opponent and keep ahead of the game to be successful because the alignment of your marbles can be changed without warning.
This causes the game to dynamically change, making for a dynamically fun game experience for both beginners and masters alike. Awards:
