PENTAGO
about the game
Pentago Oak - a classic and luxurious design in solid oak and anodised aluminium. Played with black and white glass marbles.
Pentago Birch - a more modern 'Scandinavian' design in solid
birch with the playing board painted black. Also in anodised aluminium, with
glass marbles.
Pentago Mechanic - the polymer entry level version, which has just won Gold at the 2007 Good Toy Awards.
Pentago is a fantastic new 2-player abstract strategy game from Sweden. The rules are amazingly simple. Place a glass marble in one of the nine spaces, on one of the four blocks. Now rotate any one of the playing blocks 90° in either direction. That's it!
The winner is the first player to get five of their colour in a row. Each game generally lasts no longer than 10-20 minutes, and the game has a very satisfying strategic element.
Turning the blocks constantly changes the game board, your tactics and your opponents tactics.
This simplicity, yet depth of play, is why the game is destined to become a modern classic and a must-have coffee table piece.
A 4-player version is also available, Pentago XL.
This game will also appeal to companies looking for great gifts for clients or employees.
