Description Edit | History

An abstract strategy game with four 3×3 grids arranged into a larger 6×6 grid. Players alternate placing marbles on the board, one player has white marbles and the other has black marbles. The first player to get five in a row on the entire 6×6 grid wins, but there is a new twist: Every time you place a marble you also turn any one of the game’s four boards (3×3 grid) 90° in either direction. The ever-changing game board makes the game all the more challenging.

See Pentago XL for its four-player successor.
