Pentago Mechanic
Gold @ the 2007 Good Toy Awards
How To Play
The rules are amazingly simple. Place a glass marble in one of the nine spaces, on one of the four blocks. Now rotate any one of the playing blocks 90° in either direction.
That's it!
The winner is the first player to get five of their colour in a row. Each game generally lasts no longer than 10-20 minutes, and the game has a very satisfying strategic element. Turning the blocks constantly changes the game board, your tactics and your opponents tactics. This simplicity, yet depth of play, is why the game has won award all around the world an is destined to become a modern classic and a must-have coffee table piece.
