Volta is played on a round wooden board. Each player has a square wooden playing piece with a marble on top and tries to push the other player off the board without their own marble rolling off. Since it is possible to push their own marble over the edge in one's first move (and therefore lose), the game takes anything from one second to maybe a minute.
