Kamisado Schnupperspiel, created as a promotional item for Spiel 2011, is a 6×6 version of the Kamisado basic game, which means it could also be considered to be a 6×6 version of Square Routes. (Both Square Routes and Kamisado are played on an 8×8 grid.) To win, you must get get one of your pieces to the opposite side of the board. At the start of the game, the first player picks a piece and moves it either orthogonally or diagonally forward. The color of the space on which her piece lands dictates the color of piece you must move. Some clever blockade situations can permit manipulation of your opponent, as well.
