Game Magicsquare Author © HR Deml 2018 new variant of Spiel Square (year 2000).
Magicsquare is the precursor to the strategy game Magicstar. The game is a fast-paced fighting game in which the square positions have to be worked out using spatial thinking. The players' task is to form and close as many squares as possible with their game pieces.
A square is an arrangement of 4 evenly spaced game pieces, which can be formed either as a square or even diamond. If a player was able to form a square using a Magicsquare, the player says "Square" and removes a token of his opponents' choice from the playing field. This reduces the number of pieces his opponents have until they are eliminated from the game. If a player has fewer than 4 pieces, he is eliminated from the game and his remaining pieces are removed from the playing field.
Game accessories:
Magicsquare can be played on a board with 81 or 64 diamonds (chessboard) and each player has 8 pieces/skittles in one color.
