Every kind of board — its own flavour

Chess families

Classic checkmate games. Chess, Lewis Chess (medieval bishop leap), Xiangqi (river and cannon), Shogi (drops and promotion), Shatar (camel for bishop)—one family, many rulebooks.

Territory and alignment

Classic Go fights for liberties and points, Gomoku races to five, Reversi flips whole lines, Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe sends you across nine boards, Four in a Row falls with gravity—simple to start, deep to master. Plus Amazons (move then shoot) and Lines of Action (connect your army).

Draughts and captures

One hop can decide it. English Draughts, International Draughts, Turkish Draughts, Alquerque, Kōnane, Fanorona, Surakarta, Hasami Shogi, Halma, Yoté, Latrunculi, Fighting Serpents… forced chains, sandwich takes, loop captures—fast and crisp.

Hunts and sieges

Asymmetric thrills. Hnefatafl races the king to a corner, Tiger Game pits four tigers against twenty goats, plus Fox and Geese, Hounds and Hare, Asalto, Breakthrough—surround or break out.

Animal tactics

Jungle leaps rivers; Arimaa pushes, pulls, freezes, and traps in four steps—animal boards with real depth.

Races, dice, and sowing

Luck meets planning. Senet, Royal Game of Ur, Chaupar, Yut, Puluc race home; Oware and Toguz Kumalak sow and reap. Plus top-down 8-ball and flip-to-reveal Banqi.

Mills, blocks, and folk miniatures

Nine Men's Morris, Achi, Tant Fant, Mū Tōrere, Dots and Boxes, Fidchell, Seega, Dara, Five Field Kono… short rounds you’ll want again.
