Big is beautiful! Big
satisfying pieces and beautifully crafted board. The simple elegance
of this game just begs to be left out of the box for all to see and
admire. Much like you would leave out a beautiful chess set.
If you love playing this game, then you have to have this set.
This is the world's most award-winning game!
Each of the 16 pieces has 4
different attributes, tall or
short, round or square, light or dark, solid or hollow. The aim is to line up 4 pieces which share the same
attribute. The problem is you can't choose which piece you're going to
play, your opponent chooses for you.
Each player in turn selects and gives a piece to his opponent who must
place it on an empty square on the board.
"QUARTO !" the winner is the player who, by positioning a piece,
creates a line of 4 pieces having at least 1 characteristic in common.
Also available in classic Quarto!
For those of you interested in the the Gigamic
