    Marbles Gift Wrap

     

    Marbles offers gift wrapping on this brainy product for only $1!
    We haven’t lost our minds, we just know how nice it is to avoid those dull scissors and tape that won’t tear. To add gift wrapping to your order, just select the “yes” button under the “add gift wrap” section.

    Don’t be fooled by Pentago’s simple design and striking good looks. This two-player abstract strategy game is deceptively complex with seemingly infinite outcomes. Played on a 6x6 board divided into four quadrants, the object of the game is to get five black or white marbles in a row. The twist (quite literally) is that players also rotate one of the quadrants by 90 degrees with each turn, meaning that a move intended to bring you closer to victory could actually result in crushing defeat. All the twists and turns of this award-winning game are enough to give even the world’s best soap opera writers whiplash.

    How to Play:

    One player gets the black marbles; one player gets the white marbles. Players take turns placing one of their marbles anywhere on the board - then lifting and twisting one of the 3x3 squares 90° in either direction.

    How to Win:

    The first player to get five of their marbles in a row is an instant winner.
