How to Play:
There are 16 pieces that do not belong to either player. Each piece has a variation of four groups of physical traits: (Color: light or dark, Shape: round or square, Height: tall or short, Fill: solid or hollow). In turn, players choose any piece and hand it to their opponent. The player who receives the piece places it on any of the 16 empty spaces on the board.
How to Win:
The first player to put down a piece that creates a row of four pieces that contain the same trait is the winner. For example: Any four round pieces in a row is a win; any four solid pieces in a row is a win; any four dark pieces in a row is a win; etc.

The Marbles BrainCoach says...
I love that Quarto combines strategy and visual perception. I love how the game changes with each move and that you choose your opponents pieces for them. It's also very beautiful, easy to learn and I can play it with my niece up to my Grandpa.
