Attangle
Players alternate placing their pieces on the board. When two pieces from a player converge on one from their opponent from different angles, they can capture it. Both places are moved on top of the captured one making a stack. This stack can then capture again or be captured by two single pieces but at that point it can’t move anymore. The goal is to build 3 such stacks.
It seems complex at first but it’s really simple (and best understood visually). Games are fast and ruthless with many strategies for defense and attack.
