GembloQ is an abstract strategy game with translucent, colored pieces, each of which is made up of one to five squares. Each player has an identical set of pieces in a unique color, and the goal is to get rid of all of your pieces by placing them on the square game board. The first piece you place must be in the corner close to you, and each subsequent piece must touch the corner of one of your pieces already on the board.
