Quarto | Mensa Select Winner | Wooden Abstract Strategy Board Game for Kids and Adults Family Game Night Favorite | Learn to Play in Less Than 1 Minute | Ages 8+ | 2 Players | 15 Min

It is a fun game. Takes 10 min. Requires strategy but is a quick game. Nice to leave on the table for guests and family to do. Kids, Teens, adults love it. Perfect size. Good value for money. Good quality wooden pieces.

Great game that requires thinking through a strategy but has a concept easy enough for kids and adults to play together. Instructions made it easy to understand and start playing right away. It was a great gift to give to family.

Fun game with an interesting twist. After your move you select the next piece that your opponent will place on the board. The game comes with two colors of wooden game pieces. There are multiple sizes and shapes and some have hollow centers. The object is to get four in a row of a set with similar attributes. ie: all same shape, same color, all have holes, all are solid, all same height. You have to be aware of where you might want to place and item as well as thinking about which piece you will select for your opponent. If you like games like Gobblet, Othello, or even tic tac toe, you will enjoy this game. The board is heavy and made of wood. The surface is painted with a rough, sand paper like paint and the design is routed into the wood. It looks very nice. It is about 10 inches square and 3/8 thick. (did not measure, just approximate) Very, very sturdy and professional looking. There are soft feet/pads on the bottom to prevent sliding on or scratching the surface it sets on. The pieces store in a draw string back. The bag is nothing fancy, but useful to keep pieces organized if you like to store your games out of the box on a shelf. The pieces are made of a fairly hard wood. I can not leave a mark on them with my fingernail. There are two colors. One set is dark cherry or mahogany colored and the other a blonde color of wood. There are not pads on the feet but that might cause them to be less stable on the board. They are about 2 1/2 tall. (did not measure) The pieces are heavy enough and large enough and stable enough that young hands or slightly unsteady hands should still be able to place them on the board easily. Could work for an independent living or nursing home setting. This is an item that I would purchase again and would also give as a gift. It is not a super high end, luxury, deluxe game, but it looks nice setting on our pub table and not only does it look nice and interesting, it is fun for everyone to play. The game play is not intimidating or frustrating so people are willing to give it a try and end up enjoying it.

It's a freat game, simple to play but with a twist-you puck the piece your opponent plays, and they pick yours. It can be played by all ages.

Sturdy box, sturdy pieces, easy rules that even my toddler (3 almost 4yo) was able to pick up (and promptly reject & substitute his own rules). The older kids (9&11) love the quick games & trying to out strategize their dad. Pieces survived abduction by puppy & not fall apart quickly. Great purchase, it might be a little pricey but it’s worth it! Quick delivery & no missing pieces. Fun for everyone.

One of my all time favorite games. So much fun. It really gets you thinking.

I had read some of the other reviews, one of which mentioned missing a piece; actually having two of the same piece, which causes a problem. I was missing two pieces! It was great that Amazon did an immediate replacement shipment pending my return, but this is not some thing I would send us a gift, because you can never tell whether all the pieces will be there. The game itself seems to be rather fun; we have yet to play it with the grandchildren, as the game we had on hand was missing pieces….

Fabulous game!!

Great game and arrived so fast!

La calidad de materiales es muy buena, se puede percibir en las manos. El juego es bastante ingenioso y entretenido. La mayoría de las personas lo encontrarán divertido, sobre todo aquellos que disfrutan los juegos abstractos

Anche questo, come altri, figlio del classico tris, ma con due grandi e geniali varianti, quella di dover abbinare i pezzi (4, da cui il nome Quarto) per una delle loro caratteristiche (Pieno, vuoto, alto, basso, quadrato, rotondo, bianco, nero), e quella che impone che sia l'avversario a scegliere per l'altro concorrente la pedina da giocare. Ne deriva un gioco strategicamente molto efficace e avvincente, con partite rapide e snelle. Interamente in legno robusto e ben lavorato, colpisce per la sua eleganza.

I was introduced to this game as a student, I still play it almost 30 years later. It's a simple concept, but as the playing skills develop, the games can become longer and more complicated as each player thinks further ahead and thinks about "what if" senarios. 5-20 minutes per game is common. Anyone, children or adults, who can manage a game of "Connect4" or Draughts, will be able to pick up the game quickly. It's then up to them, how much strategy they want to develop. With a similar experienced player, we have had games lasting an hour or more, and developed our own new additional rules to throw in every now and then to make the game trickier - such as not allowing the corner positions of the board to be used as part of the line of 4, or allowing a square of 4 instead of only a line of 4. I find the beauty of the game is its simple concept, allowing the players to pit themselves against each other and not rely on luck.

Très bon jeu j'aime bien Les règles sont simples et le jeu fait réfléchir
