  • Includes 88 pieces, recessed game board, and instructions
  • A StrataGems Brain Building Game
  • Fun for young and old
It's a chip off the ol' Blokus, but with a super-challenging twist! A new dimension of triangular-created Trigon pieces must be fit, tip to tip, with your own pieces on the hexagonal game board. Angles jut in every direction, so new strategies are always evolving. It's the Bermuda Triangles (486 in all) of strategy games, so you better think carefully! You can block and be blocked at any moment. Quick to learn, challenging to master. Includes recessed game board, guide and 88 Trigon pieces in four bright translucent colors.

Playable & Popular
Not age specific. The seven to eleven year olds enjoy it and adults like it. Trigon offers more ways around blocks, making the game more playable than the original square Blokus.

We love BLOKUS
We've been enthusiastic about Blokus for a couple of years and this Blokus Trigon is the most recent purchase. While we REALLY enjoy Trigon, I have to say the original Blokus proves to be the most challenging for some reason. My only complaint is that sometimes the pieces move out of place sometimes when someone is taking a turn and accidentally bumps something. And unless you know EXACTLY where that piece was, you feel a little cheated... you just want everything to stay where you put it until the end. But we will be enjoying these various versions for a long time. As an artist, I see it as a great tool to improve awareness of spatial relationships. Great fun... and easy to play while having actual conversation with your kids/friends!

Makes you think
This is a wonderful game for ages 8 and up, you have to think about your moves and plan strategy for your next move, you are using your brain not just rolling dice and moving pieces around the board. Would be a great "Braingame" for seniors.

Phenomenal toy, highly recommended
We play this with our 7 and 3 year old kids and everyone enjoys the game. The three year old can grasp the rules, but not yet the strategy.

Fun way to bring family together
My sister has this. We (ages 19 to 76) gathered around to play after Thanksgiving dinner for several hours, and now I want one of my own.

I agree that it is best played with 3 or 4 players. It wasn't catching on when just 2 were trying to play. I didn't learn the solitaire rules, but that could be interesting.

I also agree that the pieces are small, a bit hard to keep still on the board, and easily lost.
