Description

[Edit] [History]

Triagonal players need to battle for superiority in order to 'win the majority' of the 49 available sectors of the game board. This is only the basic option of the game. There are several other different playing options to choose from, all of which can be played on the one board.

When playing any of the 'Die Included' game option:
Players require some die throwing luck, but also, planning skills to place their quantity of won sector formers into the board to their best advantage ~ without leaving openings for opponents to gain from.

With skill, a player on their turn could win one or more sectors from a single throw.

Bonus Points:
Players can earn themselves 'Five' bonus points for "Each (and Every) Hexagon" formed in their colour tiles. Bonus points are added to the 'Final Tile Count' and could dramatically change the outcome of who actually wins the game.

What mood are you in ?:
Choose a game option to suit your mood... Using 'None', 'Either one' or 'Both' of the custom dice.

There are seven game options included with the game and 'More' additional 'FREE' game options which can be downloaded from the publisher's website.
Note: The additional game playing options were created after the game had been produced.

Game playing options include:
Pure Strategy, Chance, Quick, Solo, Team, Gambling (Fun or Real), Connect 4 to 7, How Many (requires maths), Pass Over (no board), Exchange and more. Play 'Exchange' and you may gain opportunities to exchange opponents tiles for your own, and maybe obtain that 'lost' five point hexagon..!

Whichever option you choose to play:
Watch out for the 'Instant Win' and 'Bonus Point hexagon and line' opportunities.

Triagonal can accommodate 1 to 4 players Ages 5 and up.

You can play Triagonal almost anywhere because, the game pieces are located and retained in the game board during play but, are instantly cleared ready for the next challenging game.

All Triagonal components are injection molded:
Including the white triangular game board, 84 black Sector Formers, 120 Scoring Tiles (30 of each in red, yellow, blue and green). Also included are two custom 'printed' dice.
