## Description

Gigamic Quarto Classic Game : desertcart.co.uk: Toys & Games

Review: Brilliant - Simple concept, but can be made as tricky as you wish - 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.
Review: Great game with friends, teenagers etc. - Good quality set.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the full size version or the mini version?**
A: Full size.  Board is 10 1/4 x 10 1/4 inches.  Tall pieces 2 1/2 in high, short pieces 1 1/2 inches high.  Pieces approx. 3/4 - 1 in width  When boxed, closed box is 11x11x3 in.  Sturdy, well-constructed box.  Interior configuration of the box for storage well thought out, including carry pouch for pieces, seems it will keep the set in mint condition.  Enjoy.  Great game.  Great set.

**Q: If these are stacked vertically, how can you tell if the bottom piece in a stack is hollow or solid?**
A: These are NOT stacked vertically so there is no confusion.  Each piece is played directly on the board and never on another piece.

**Q: Can you post the instructions so I can see how I can see what this game actually is?**
A: Quick answer, 4 in a row. Height, color, shape, or flat top/hole. You give the other person the piece they have to play . It's very easy to learn and hard to get good at. That said, anyone from about 8 to 80 will enjoy it and can honestly play against each other.

**Q: What material is the board made from? Wood or plastic?**
A: Manufactured wood.  It is a composite pressed board that is routed and painted and looks good.

*by C***N on 19 September 2018*

Not often I will rave about a game but this is really good for all ages. Not a battery in sight. I wish I had gone for the 4 player game but may well buy that as well. Gets you thinking and on your toes.
