Yinsh

Product Description

YINSH is the 5th game in the GIPF series of two-player abstract games.

The players each start with five rings on the board.
Every time a ring is moved, it leaves a marker behind.
Markers are white on one side and black on the other.
When markers are jumped over by a ring they must be flipped, so their color is constantly changing.
The players must try to form a row of five markers with their own color face up.
If a player succeeds in doing so, he removes one of his rings as an indication that he has formed such a row.
The first player to remove three of his rings wins the game.
In other words, each row you make brings you closer to victory-but also makes you weaker, because you have one fewer ring to play with.
Very tricky!
