What it is

A classic race for families and anyone who likes a clean contest. Each turn you either step your pawn or drop a wall, and the first across the 9x9 board wins. Walls can slow a rival but can never close off the last path. It plays with two or four.

What we love

  • One choice each turn: move or build
  • Twenty walls are split evenly, so two players get ten each and four players get five
  • Walls stay put once placed, so each one is a commitment

Honest trade-offs

  • Three players is not recommended, so plan on two or four
  • Once your walls are gone you can only walk, so timing matters
