Target Control 1996

Abstract strategy game.

Glass board, 3 metal circular pawns: Blue = player A Yellow = player B Black = base The colour on these pieces is only marked on a quarter of the circular top of the playing pieces.

Players try to touch the common black base piece with their own piece by sliding and turning their piece on a 5x5 grid (excluding the corners) from a set starting position to win the match. Players either slide orthagonal along the dots or turn their piece 90 degrees in their turn. Touching has to be done between the coloured parts of your playing piece and the common base (hence the importance of turning). An extra turn can be earned by ending your move on one of the four open dots on the board. Jumping over other pieces is not allowed.
