Chameleon
The Towering Game of Stack Tactics
2-4 Players
It's the 3-D building game with a colorful twist. As players race to build towers using their Chameleon blocks, there's a surprise with every move-the Chameleon blocks magically change their colors! Place one block on a tower, and the block below changes color! You'll need skill and luck to correctly "predict" what colors will appear. Matching colors earns you another turn. If block colors don't match, dismantle the tower, block by block, and start from the ground up!
Grades K+ Ages 5+
Trapture
The twisting, turning game of trap and capture!
Zigzag your way around the game board, making squiggly paths as you trap and capture ("trapture") little purple pegs. Surround a peg on four sides and it's yours - but all the while, you must prevent your opponent from doing the same. Choose carefully - don't get stuck with pieces you can't fit! Squiggle, strategize, and scheme to capture the most pegs. Includes Trapture game board, 24 vibrant, translucent "squiggles" pieces, and 13 translucent purple pegs. Great for all ages! For 2 players.
Grades 1 and up.
Rumis
Grades 1 and up. There’ll be no stone left unturned in this challenging strategy game. Inspired by Incan architecture, RUMIS (meaning “stones”) sharpens spatial awareness and critical thinking skills as players strategize to outwit their opponents while reconstructing historical Incan structures (pyramid, tower, stairs, and wall). Each player receives eleven Rumis stones of one color. Players begin, one stone at a time, strategically placing their stones to prevent opponents from having the most visible colored stones. The player with the most stones visible from above wins! Rumis comes with four beautifully designed game boards, a unique custom turntable, 44 wooden Rumis “stones,” and instructions for variations on the game, including a habit-forming version of solitaire.
