The players each start with 5 rings on the board. Every time a ring is moved, it leaves a marker behind. Markers are white on one side and black on the other. When markers are jumped over by a ring they must be flipped, so their color is constantly changing. The players must try to form a row of 5 markers with their own color face up. If a player succeeds in doing so, he removes one of his rings as an indication that he has formed such a row. The first player to remove 3 of his rings wins the game. In other words, each row you make brings you closer to victory-but also makes you weaker, because you have one fewer ring to play with. Very tricky!
Amazing. A GREAT abstract strategy game. It has elements of Othello but feels completely unique; it Has a great system where the closer you are to victory, the less choices you have at your disposal.
I'm not usually a fan of abstract games but yinsh is the exception. Clever gameplay and quality components
A game that lets you feel clever. Highly recommend if you like abstract games.
Plays is the right amount of time where it does not drag on, fun gameplay and no luck thrown in for the sake of spicing this up. If you win, it is because you outplayed your opponent. One of the best Gipf games ever made!
Fast, easy, simple to learn, and good replayability. The games go quick so you can easily reset and play again. The strategy is there so it's not just some luck of the draw.
