Sprenge 2012

Sprenge is a three-player game designed for play with a Shibumi set. It uses a 4×4-holed board, and balls in three colors (white, black, and red).

Rules: The 4×4 board starts empty. The players, White, Black, and Red, take turns placing one ball of each of their opponent’s colors (e.g. White plays a black and a red) anywhere on the growing pyramid — they don’t need to be touching one another. The balls can be placed on board holes and/or on top of 2×2 platforms.

Aim: The player with the largest group of connected balls of her color when the pyramid is full wins. In case of a tie, the first player in turn order wins (i.e. White beats Black beats Red in a tie).
