Pogo

This abstract stacking game has players move portions of friendly-topped stacks to place their color atop every stack. Moving more pieces travels farther, so each transfer can establish control while exposing another stack.

A stacking game akin to Sid Sackson's Focus/Domination, only with fewer pieces, a smaller board, and much more attractive production. This is a "coffee table" sort of wooden game. The purpose of the game is to get a piece of your colour on the top of every stack. It is played on a 3x3 board. You start with 3 stacks of 2 pieces on the three spaces closest to you. On your turn, you take up to 3 pieces from the top of a stack that has one of your pieces on top, and move them, orthogonally, the same number of spaces, putting them on top of any stack aleady in the ending space. Stacks may be any size.
