Description

Crossboard is an abstract strategy board game for 2 or 3 players. The game consists of: • an 8" x 8" wooden board containing 84 slots which form a grid pattern of 36 squares • Three groups of 45 colored wooden discs. Each player is represented by one group of 45 colored discs. The discs are used as walls, which are inserted into the game board’s 84 slots, and also as markers, which are placed flat on the game board’s 36 squares. Players take turns adding discs, attempting to be the first to form a path of discs connecting either two opposite sides of the game board. Two-player games average 10-20 minutes, with 3-player games, 20-30 minutes. The game involves no luck and all strategy in its simple yet compelling blend of offensive and defensive game play. The minimal, simple rules for claiming squares and forming paths make for intriguing game play for players 8 and up.
