Overview
A four-player version of Pentago. Now in color, instead of just black and white. An abstract strategy game with nine 3×3 grids arranged into a larger 9x9 board. Players alternate placing marbles on the board. Each player has a color of marbles, and the game is set-up to allow team-play. The first player or team to get five in a row on the entire 9x9 grid wins, but there is a twist: Every time a player places a marble they also turn any one of the game’s eight outer boards 90° in either direction. The ever-changing game board makes the game all the more challenging. Re-implements: Pentago Re-implemented by: Multiplayer Pentago
