A friend and I had an hour to spare, and out of the blue he surprised me with pulling this game out of his bag. And what a delightful surprise it was.
The game is quick to play and easy to learn, but still involves the players in intense strategic thinking. This is a game well suited for newcomers as well as experienced players. With no board, this chess-like game requires no preparation, making it a well suited game for travelling.
