Amazon.com Product Description:
Fun for both kids and adults, Blokus is a strategy board game that challenges spatial thinking. Bright colors and simple rules make it ideal for ages five and up, but adults will certainly be engrossed by this unique and challenging game.
Not Your Average Board Game
Blokus encourages creative thinking and has received a Mensa award for promoting healthy brain activity. The goal of this game is for players to fit all of their pieces onto the board. When placing a piece it may not lie adjacent to the player's other pieces, but must be placed touching at least one corner of their pieces already on the board. The player who gets rid of all of their tiles first is the winner and strategic thinking helps as you block moves from your opponent. Blokus sometimes comes to an end because there are no more possible moves.
Four players make this abstract game especially fast and exciting; however, it can be just as fun for two or three players. Blokus has come up with a number of different ways to play the game to make it more thrilling when playing with less than four players. Draft Blokus allows a player to use more than one color and Reverse Blokus reverses the entire game so that the person who places the least amount of tiles on the board is the winner. It can even be played in a solitaire version when one player attempts to place all of their pieces in a single sitting. A game of Blokus typically lasts a 30 minutes. As a practical feature, raised edges on the board help keep the tiles in place and allow convenient clean-up. This game includes 84 pieces in four vibrant colors, an instruction guide, and one gameboard with 400 squares.
Blokus is simple to understand, but the game's complexity is revealed shortly after everyone begins to play. It can be addictive, even for those not normally into abstract games. Blokus is a catalyst for spatial thinking, as players form images in their mind before placing the pieces on the board. Children and adults can play together for hours of competitive family fun. As Europe's 2003 Game of the Year, Blokus is adored by many and even played in professional tournaments.

This game is good for all ages and keeps the mind stimulated. Great for use in hospitals as it is interactive and quiet. The travel version would be great on airplanes or car travel.

This game was given to our family as a gift. We had so much fun with it, we bought one for another family as a gift! It is one of the most popular games at our family game nights. It is never the same twice!!! It is durable and easy to put away and store.

A great game to play with kids and adults alike; my son received the larger game board as a gift. The game board was too large to make it challenging for two players. So I bought this one for myself to play with my son and my husband. We are all fans of the game!

This game is grreat!. I usually play it with my young brothers, whose ages are (6,10 and 13). they all enjoy it, since it is easy to play and has lots of strategy. every time we play it, we learn more about strategy. I wish it had special bags for the playing pieces of the game instead of the plastic plates.
